SMC Tech Tips: Preventing Cable Charging Current

The capacitance of a transmission system will cause continuous current to flow even when no load is connected. This is referred to as the charging current. Cable capacitance increases with length of the cable, and with increased capacitance, the charging current drawn is also increased. Watch SMC Specialist, Mark Lindsay, explain how you can prevent cable charging current. Contact us to learn more about Preventing Cable Charging Current | https://www.smcelectric.com/company/contact
