Get Your Motor Running!
The starting function of motors is often misunderstood, impacting motor performance and compromising energy efficiency.
We’ve developed a series of technical white papers to provide a detailed introduction to the theory of starting motors, based on the work of electronics design expert Mark Empson, co-founder of AuCom Electronics.
Part 3: Motor Starting Solutions
The third white paper in the series - Motor Starting Solutions - takes a more in-depth look at a range of motor starting solutions, including star-delta, direct-on-line, and solid start soft start.
Other papers in the series include:
- Reduced voltage starting
- An introduction to start torque
- An overview of solid state soft starters
- Variable frequency control
