The inrush current affects the whole system from the power source to the capacitor bank, and especially the local bus voltage which initially is depressed to zero. When the switch closes to insert the second capacitor bank, the inrush current affects mainly the local parallel capacitor bank circuits and bus voltage.
Safeguarding against the filter capacitor’s charging period’s initial current inrush flow is crucial for the performance of the device. Temporarily introducing a high resistance between the input power and rectifier can increase the resistance of the powerup, leading to reducing the inrush current.

When closing on a single capacitor bank, the inrush current does not exceed the peak value and the rate of rise of a power-frequency short-circuit, which the breaker must be capable to cope with in any case. Circuit-breaker must feature a very low restrike probability and comply with class C 2 according to IEC 62271-100.
At power on, an inrush of current occurs and while in its charging phase the filter capacitor acts like a dead short. This state continues until the filter capacitor is completely charged, leaving the potential of the inrush current to fully hit the load.
On back-to-back switching, 100 times the rated current of the capacitor may occur. When paralleling, a high inrush current (Ie) with a high rate of rise (considerably above the value of a short-circuit) may occur.

A discharged or partially charged capacitor appears as a short circuit to the source when the source voltage is higher than the potential of the capacitor. A fully discharged capacitor will take approximately 5 RC time periods to fully charge; during the charging period, instantaneous current can exceed steady-state current by a substantial multiple. Instantaneous current declines to steady-state current as the capacitor reaches full charge. In the case of open circuit, the capacit…
