hi all,
I have an inverter in which in faulty condition, it is probable two capacitor with different voltage get parallel. I want to use inrush limiter to limit the current flow in this condition. I looked at net and have found Ametherm limiters(https://www.ametherm.com/inrush-current/as-series-inrush-current-limiters.html). in datasheet of inrush current limiter, they have indicated a resistance value; I like to know this value is related to normal condition or when it act as current limiter. I also will be so grateful if somebody provide me equivalent circuit of this component according to values indicated in datasheet.
Thank you

gathered that I can not use inrush current limiter (NTC). because it is already heated in circuit when circuit works properly.
any suggestion to over come the issue I have talked about ( paralleled capacitors) would be appreciated.
Thank you
