Abstract
The systems and methods described are for adjusting over current protection values during changes in load current. In one aspect, a method includes, monitoring a load current amplitude value at a power input connected to an electrical load; determining a rate of change of the load current amplitude value; determining whether the rate of change of the load current amplitude value exceeds a predefined rate threshold value; in response to determining that the rate of change of the load current amplitude value exceeds the predefined rate threshold value: adjusting an over current protection value from a first over current protection value to an adjusted over current protection value for a first predefined amount of time; and at the expiration of the first predefined amount of time, at least partially reversing the adjustment to the over current protection value.
