Re: Transformer Soft Start

Thanks Les,

We've accounts with both RS and Farnell and usually find Farnell
cheaper.
I've got one large transformer supplying 5 steppers which gives quite
a thump when it's switched on.
Is it better to put the resistance on the supply side of the
transformer or between the transformer and the capacitor which is
drawing the current surge ?

thanks for the codes,

Rab
