Textbook Question
Chapter 36, Problem 1RQ
List five common starting methods for three-phase squirrel-cage motors.
Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
The five common starting methods for three phase squirrel cage motors.
Explanation of Solution
Starters are used to limit the starting current for three phase squirrel cage induction motors. The most common starting methods for three phase squirrel cage motors are:
- 1. Across the line starting method
- 2. Resistor starting
- 3. Autotransformer starting
- 4. Y-delta starting
- 5. Part winding starting
Thus, the five common starting methods for three phase squirrel cage motors are listed.
