Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark
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. 1. Across the line starting method
  2. 2. Resistor starting
  3. 3. Autotransformer starting
  4. 4. Y-delta starting
  5. 5. Part winding starting

Thus, the five common starting methods for three phase squirrel cage motors are listed.
