I’d say the only way would be to measure it….real time!seems that it would need a software model to come up with a true representation.
2 x 5kVA 230/110V single phase AC transformers connected in series, would the inrush current (5X) be double or just the same as one? or somewhere inbetween.
Read the title.Are you proposing wiring the primaries (inputs) in series or the secondaries (outputs)?
The primary -secondary to primary-secondary to the load i.e. in series?
not quite 230 into 110 then 110 into 230.I hadn't even *thought* of that arrangement!
You mean cascaded?
SUPPLY 230V => [TX1] =>110V =>[TX2] => 55V => LOAD
I read the opening statement as….2 transformers, whose primaries are in series across the mains supply….I hadn't even *thought* of that arrangement!

That’s not the same as the thread title….not quite 230 into 110 then 110 into 230.
To expand its for a railway track crossing , the cables under a track cannot be above 110V AC so we have to step down then up on the otherside.If we are at the design stage why use two transformers?
The subject is bizarre…
Well in that case I’d say it’s fine, I‘ve seen this approach in electronic circuits where the sec volt was a lot lower albeit…To expand its for a railway track crossing , the cables under a track cannot be above 110V AC so we have to step down then up on the otherside.

So what’s the issue? Can’t you do a live model?
What is the load on the downstream side?
