• 1-ph transformer and PV are structured to analyze suppression of inrush current.
• This current is minimized by number of delayed cycles before energization.
• Technique depends on energy injected into transformer by the PV before energizing.
• Optimum instance is different with rating of PV and solar irradiance during day.
• The idea is validated and proved by simulation results.
This paper presents a novel technique for suppressing the transformer-energizing inrush current. This technique is based on existing of a Photovoltaic (PV) generation system. Large magnitude inrush current can occur with certain combination of point of wave energization and residual core flux. The PV system is exploited to produce a magnetic flux in the core of the energized transformer in a negative direction of that produced by the main grid during grid-off. In this paper, the wave-energizing instant is optimally chosen and hence the amount of the residual flux existing in the core is controlled to be ready to sink the energizing effect. The impact of existing of PV system that connected to 280 kV, 60 Hz grid is studied at different energizing instances, different power ratings and different solar irradiances. The method is illustrated by simulation results and validated by harmonic analysis. The optimum energizing instances are explored at different working circumstances. The results at transient and steady states verify that the proposed technique enables the minimization of the inrush current by optimized grid-switching instance.
