CSN® pre-charging resistors (PIR)

We limit unwanted switch-on effects.

Description

CSN® pre-charging resist ors are used to limit transient processes during switch-on processes of transformers and HVDC systems with intermediate voltage circuits (VSC technology).

CSN® pre-charging resistors are designed and manufactured individually according to customer specifications and application.

PIR = Pre-Insertion Resistor
