A method and circuit for minimizing DC current offset generated by the voltage-integrating property of an inductive load. First, second and third hybrid contactors connect first, second, and third output lines of an AC power source to first, second, and third input lines of an inductive load. Each hybrid contactor includes a pair of relay contacts in parallel with a semiconductor switching unit having two antiparallel-connected silicon-controlled-rectifiers. A latching circuit and several delay circuits are used to turn on and off the hybrid contactors; the timing of the turn-on points is controlled relative to a zero-crossing of a voltage from the AC power source such that minimal DC offset current occurs.
