Star-Delta Starter Power Circuit
Drawing preview
The scenario

A three-phase induction motor is started in star configuration to reduce starting current, then switched to delta for full-load running using three contactors.

What is in this drawing

Read the decisions behind it.

01

Use main, delta, and star contactors with mechanical interlocking

02

Connect motor windings in star for starting and delta for running

03

Include fuses for each phase

Applies to industrial motor control panels where reduced-voltage starting is required for three-phase induction motors.
