what are the components of a start and stop motor control?..

Answer / mohd azharuddin

It depends on type of starting methods u r opting, for example u can use DOL METHOD which requires one overload protection relay, one contactor, two push buttons, one nc and one no elements but the disadvantage of this method is high inrush current so this method shoudnt be used for big motors


Another method is STAR DELTA METHOD in which u require one overload protection, three contactors, one for main, second for star, third for delta, one timer with relay logic, two push buttons, one no and nc elements, in this method motor is started in star connection for the first few seconds and then changeover to delta, by using this method we can reduce high inrush current.

A commercial Building is designed with 14th floor levels with indoor substation of three phase transformer with rated capacity of 1000 Kva.The transformer delivered 65% of its rated capacity at 0.67 power factor lagging.Because of low power factor, the power customer was penalized and certain cost was charged accordingly based on every point percentage lower than 85%.This situation may repeatedly happen on the succeding energy bills of power customer.The power customer is desired to improve its historical power factor of 0.67 lagging and no further penalty be impose by the local power company on the next bill.
