Part Winding Motor Starter Wiring Diagram
Learn the specifics of a part winding start system.
Part winding motor starter wiring diagram. 1 8 nidec motor corporation. A soft starter is any system that is used to reduce inrush current as well as strain on electrical circuits that supply power to motors. Microsoft word 466703 author. In this lesson we ll examine part winding reduced voltage starters.

The first starter is used to connect one winding of the motor across the. Inrush current is the initial surge of current into the windings when the motor is started.
Motors designed for part winding start utilize only a portion of the winding at start up. Since the windings are divided into two pa rallel circuits the motor will only be exposed to a portion of the current at start up d epending. See the figure below for the connection schematics. Both windings must be identical as to size of wire and number of turns.

Typical wiring diagrams always use wiring diagram supplied on motor nameplate connection diagrams co leads part winding weg three phase motors volts 12 lead part winding 12 10 11 12 3 l1 l2 12 10 11 64 5 78 9. Therefore part winding starters can be used only with motors having stator windings divided into two equal parts with the terminals of each part available for external connection. This means a portion of the windings are energized with full load voltage.
1 8 2014 1 14 06 pm. In the a position the windings function as shown in the diagram. 1 8 2014 nidec motor corporation st. The part winding starter consists of two across the line starters and a timer.
Reduced voltage starting methods reduce inrush current and modify acceleration and starting torque characteristics. This type of motor requires no connection diagram because the electrician simply connects the three motor leads which may be labeled t1 t2 and t3 to the respective starter terminals which connect to power supply lines l1 l2 and l3.
