Best Answer

A star-delta motor should be supplied star-delta.

Wye is simply another name for star. Star-delta motors use a star or wye configuration to start, and a delta configuration to run. This reduces the voltage on the windings during the high current starting time.

What are the parameters on which the timing of star delta starter depends?

The timing should allow the motor to get up to full RPM in the star configuration before switching to delta configuration. Depending on the motor size and inertia loading it will be from 5 to 10 seconds.


What is the difference of a star or delta connection on motor terminals?

What is wye-delta motor control?

It is a type of starter that allows a motor to be started across the line by starting the motor with a reduced inrush current. The motor is started in a wye configuration until it gets up to speed and then a timer drops the wye contactor out a draws the delta configured contactor in. The motor then operates in a delta wired configuration.


What is a forward-reverse star delta?

A forward reverse star delta is a two in one motor starter where a motor first runs on star connection and then changed to delta connection after a time which has been set. The motor direction can be changed, whether forward or reverse
