Due to the impact of inrush current of transformer, made a voltage drop by source impedance as well as by sensitive loads. That’s why, necessary action is required to reduce the inrush current. Many factors like, secondary winding load, material of transformer core, Saturation flux/residual flux of transformer core, capacity of transformer, supply impedance, voltage-starting phase angle, are affecting the inrush current of transformer. Some different types of methods for inrush current reduction are listed in this paper. Out of that, sequential switching method is adopted for the reduction inrush current.

The conventional single-phase quasi-Z-source (QZS) inverter has a high leakage current as it is connected to the grid. To address this problem, this paper proposes a transformerless QZS inverter, which can reduce the leakage current for single-phase grid-tied applications. The proposed inverter effectively alleviates the leakage current problem by removing high-frequency components for the common-mode voltage. The operation principle of the proposed inverter is described together with its control strategy. A control scheme is presented for regulating the DC-link voltage and the grid current. A 1.0 kW prototype inverter was designed and tested to verify the performance of the proposed inverter. Silicon carbide (SiC) power devices were applied to the proposed inverter to increase the power efficiency. The experimental results showed that the proposed inverter achieved high performance for leakage current reduction and power efficiency improvement.
