- Definition(s)
- Inrush current is the initial surge of current that results when power is first applied to a load having a low starting impedance, such as a discharged capacitor, a cold lamp filament, or a stopped motor's winding. RTI Electronics, Inc.
- Example sentence(s)
- An NTC thermistor is always connected in series with the load to be protected. If the inrush current cannot be handled by one thermistor alone, two or more thermistor elements can be connected in series. - EPCOS AG
by - Typical power converters made by other manufactures require the user to add external inrush current limiting components such as an NTC thermistor. In contrast, all BEAR converters have active inrush current limiting circuitry built into the module. - Bear Power Supplies
by - The trips are caused by the initial start up current - or inrush current - which can be several times greater than their operating or steady-state current. In a three-phase motor, for example, inrush current generally lasts between 75-150 milliseconds with a current spike between 500% and 1200%. - Fluke Corporation

- Definition(s)
- Als Einschaltstrom bezeichnet man den elektrischen Strom, der unmittelbar nach dem Einschalten eines elektrischen Verbrauchers fließt. Wikipedia - by Norbert Hermann
- Example sentence(s)
- Je höher demnach ein auch nur kurzzeitiger Einschaltstrom ist, umso größer wird das Risiko, dass dessen Energie die Kontakte im Einschaltmoment verkleben oder verschweißen lässt. - wissen.de
by Norbert Hermann - Die Bauelemente sind ideal für batteriebetriebene Anwendungen geeignet und so ausgelegt, dass sie den Einschaltstrom fortlaufend überwachen und regeln. - Der technologische Presseservice
by Norbert Hermann - Physikalisch bedingt kann es beim Einschalten bestimmter Verbraucher (z.B. Transformatoren, Motoren und Lüfter), bedingt durch erhöhten Einschaltstrom (Rush-Effekt) zum Auslösen des vorgeschalteten Sicherungsautomaten oder Motorschutzschalters mit magnetischer Schnellauslösung kommen. - Transtec
