Textbook Question
Chapter 26, Problem 1RQ
Name two requirements that must be met before a motor can be used for wye-delta starting.
Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
Identify two requirements for a motor to be used with wye-delta starting.
Explanation of Solution
Wye-delta starting is used to reduce the inrush current and the starting torque. The two requirements for a motor to be used with wye-delta starting are:
- The design of the motor must be such that the stator winding is connected in delta during the running time.
- All the leads of the stator windings must be accessible.
