inrush
Rapid mass entry
An inrush is a sudden, forceful flow of something into a space—water, air, people, or capital: The dam broke, sending an inrush of water into the valley.
Inrush current refers to the initial surge of electrical current when a device is first powered on, often many times higher than normal operating levels.
