Three-phase inrush prediction and control in switching power supplies

In this paper the inrush current due to an arbitrary excitation of a three phase transformer after a fault is modeled in time domain. The approach proposed, although using several simplifying assumptions, seems promising in order to calculate the optimal time to close the circuit after a fault when solid state switching are used. This technique may be useful for many applications, among them the switching control of power supplies.
