Did some searching of the forum, but didn't find an answer to my question.
If you used an ohm meter, and measured across a solenoid coil are you measuring the resistance of the coil or the reactance?
What I want to do is calculate the inrush and holding currents of a solenoid valve in a 24V...
I was wondering if there is anything that could cause a greater inrush current in a pilot operated solenoid valve. Such as water pressure.
Also I have been told that a vacuum is created when a valve opens that will restrict the movement of the solenoid plunger increasing the inrush current.
Is...
