Hello,
We will use a contactor to switch our circuit on and off every second at mains (230vac) peak to note its resilience to inrush.
Do you know what is the bouncing time of a typical contactor? say one of the ~£20 ones.
Our circuit draws only 600mA RMS, however, due to the two 100n x2 capacitors, there is an inrush caused at mains peak, decaying sinusoid ring of peak 50Amps. Its decayed away after some 60us.....the period of the ring about 7us.
They dont seem to give the bounce time...
