Inrush reactor inductance
Inrush reactor inductance
(OP)
Can anyone help me about how to calculate the inductance value of inrush reactor which is used for inrush currents during medium voltage capacitor switching...

For a single Capacitor Bank
The inrush current depends on the fault level at the point of connection and the capacitor bank power in MVAr.
The closing peak current is given by:
I inrush= Icapacitor x√2 x √(Scc/Q)
Scc: short circuit power of the source in
MVA at the connection point
Q: capacitor power rating in MVAr.

Contact some cap bank manufacturers' application engineer, if you can. Given the parameters they will size it for you.
Also Google for the topic, you will find a few articles, just to give you an idea.
