Word for connecting something nicely without voltage fluctuation?

"Soft start" almost applies, but is a power supply term referring to getting the oscillations going, where in some cases it would "hard start" and not get going, which is a fail. So inductors are usually placed inline with the source power of a power supply so that the initial current inrush does not "sieze up" the oscillator making it fail to start.

In switch talk, i'd say you can't do it with direct contacts, and the use of a solid state relay is needed to quell arcing.

For wind power we have laminar flow (smooth) and turbulent.

Surge and erratic or their antonyms come to mind.
