Hello
I'm working on a project using a multi tap transformer. I want to control the taps using a traic. Assuming that I have taps on the primary side. How im gonna protect the triacs from the transformer inrush current ?
My first assumption was using a fuse but from my understanding when the inrush current occurs its gonna effect the triacs anyway.
Is there a circuit that I need to include like a snubber to the traics ? or
Should the current capacity of the traics be big enough to handle this inrush current ?
Sorry for my lack of knowledge and thanks in advance
