Does anyone know how S&C derives transformer magnetizing inrush and hot/cold load inrush values? They seem to be on the extreme side, but then again they may have a point in terms of a feeder trip and reclose with residual magnetism in the core.

Nothing has blown so far, but I just want to have this knowledge underneath my belt so to speak if it ever comes up in the future. My philosophy is prevention rather than attention after that fact.

Dear all,
Hello, hello, I think the discussion is running OUT of Scope!
Let us concentrate on one subject at a time, even though the subject is related to the next subject.
Apophenic? Verbosity?
This is my observation.
