An Auto transformer motor starter is a device intended to start AC asynchronous motors, instead of connecting the electric motor directly to the electrical grid, it will connect it to the grid in more than just one step.

Hence, it will behave as an electro mechanical soft starter.

Although it is the "older" method of starting motors, it is still widely used due to its simplicity.

The list of parts needed to "make" an "Auto Transformer Motor Starter" is composed from:

1. Auto transformer itself

2. 3 contactor (electrically sized to fit the motor)

3. Two timers, defining when the contactors will "close".
