How do you start a motor without a starter?

By the use of auto transformer and bridge rectifier we can start dc motor.


What device may be wired into the starting circuit of a motor to improve the starting torque?

I assume a 3 phase, AC induction motor. A star delta starter or a soft starter can be used. A soft starter is better compared to a star delta starter, but it is more expensive.


Why a DC motor starter is called 3 point starter?

Because it has three terminals L , F and A L - Line (connected to Supply) F - Field (connected to field of dc motor) A - Armature (connected to armature of DC motor) that's y it is called 3 point starter :)


Where do you find dc motors?

Examples of DC electric motors are the starter in your car and the motor in a DC controlled elevator, to name just two.


Explain the necessity for the use of a starter with a dc motor?

In its simplest form, the starter of a dc motor is a variable resistance in series with the armature circuit of dc motor to reduce the high starting current so that the armature winding does not get overheated and burnt while the motor isgetting started. As the rotating armature of dc motor picks up speed, the starter resistance is gradually reduced so that the motor is able to attain its full speed when the starter is not expected to offer any additional resistance in series with the armature winding of the dc motor. At full speed the motor starts running normally, of course, without the help of starter. In other words, the starter offers resistance to armature current during starting of dc motor only. Under normal working condition of dc motor , the starter is electrically out of armature circuit of the motor. The starter protects the armature of dc motor from getting damaged. The electromotive force (emf) induced in the armature winding during starting builds up from zero value to max value to restrict the armature current within the permissible value at full speed. As the speed of armature/motor build up, armature induced emf also starts building thus reducing the role resistance offered by the starter, hence requiring it to gradually reduce as the motor picks up full speed.

Soft starter tripping?

Most of the motors are usually controlled by the soft starters which usually trip frequently. One of the steps in find why the soft starter has tripped is looking at the motor circuit protector rating.

Why starter used in DC motors?

starter is used in dc motor to reduce the initial starting torque...so that the dc machine could be protected from damage.... ..and to avoid max ..current flowing ..from it it can damage whole ..moter structure
