by magnetisation of no voltage coil
traditionally, 3 contact starters are for a three phase motor and two contact starters are for a single phase motor.
The back end. Most car starters turn counter clockwise
3 point & 4 point starters are used
sounds like the starter motor isn't earthed properly better to take it to auto electrician shouldn't be to costly they normally fit a new earth lead to get a better contact
To see if the motor is three phase or single phase look at the motor's nameplate. There it will tell you what the voltage needs to be and what system phase the motor needs to be connected to operate properly.
it depends on the load and size of the motor if the motor has to drive heavy loads from initial state it require more torque, for this we use star-delta starters where load on motor in permissible then we use a DOL starters DOL starters are direct supply feeders to the motor so there is no rule to use a starter. we can use anything to swith the motor. for protection we need a overload relay and you ask for a 1ph motor, i.e maximum 3hp motors are available for less than 2 hp motor you can use a 6amp switch used in household or a 6amp mcb (includes overload). for 3hp a 16 amp switch or a 10amp mcb is more than enough
There has to be device or a mechanism to start and stop a motor. hence a starter is needed. There are many different ways to start a motor. Considering AC Motor - It could be DOL, Star-Delta starters, which are age old and conventional. Star Delta starter starter is for higher rating motors, example over 7.5 kw, depending upon type of load. There are more advanced starters like Soft starters and Drives also.

Isolate the wire going into kill switch [wrap some tape round it] so it cannot be earthed.
the motor wont work properly............
on starters that have the solenoid mounted on them, the link is a fork like piece between the solonoid and the starter clutch, which is on the motor shaft. on starters that dont have the solenoid on the starter, it just has a overrunning clutch on the motor shaft
No you must have a starter from the same model and motor size. I think starters are very motor specific. Hope this helps.
