[Req.][AC current limiter circuit]

[vamanan]

Hi,
I have an AC circuit. I want to limit the current to 1A to the load. But during error condition 10A can flow to the circuit. But I want to limit the current to 1A. Can anybody give some ideas how to implement the same.
Thanks

The current drawn is directly proportional to the load.If you want to limit the load from consuming 10A instead of 1A, then I think you should measure the current and before it shoots up you have to cut the source of input to the load.

You could look at the sort of current foldback as used in switch modes maybe
current limiting with examples of the type you may like is also described here:
