Can you wire a 3 phase 690 volt delta star motor to 480 volt 3 phase with out harming the motor?
Depends on the motor and the load on that motor. If the motor is loaded to its capacity, it will draw the same amount of power as it would on 690 volts - which will result in ( 690/480 = ) 144% of normal current, which will thermally damage the motor, or will trip overload protection.

How star delta helping motor from overheat?
star delta motors start as a Y for 3 phase so the windings that normally see 480 volts see 277V a relay switches to delta then it runs as a normal delta motor the reduces the starting current by about 60% for 3 phase
Can you run a star motor in delta?
Delta motors should have more starting current than Wye (Star) motors because Delta motors have two windings to take current per phase -- they are wired Phase to Phase. Star motors have only one winding per phase -- they are wired Phase to Neutral.
Are contactor points and bimetallic strip connected to the star delta starter of 3 phase induction motor?
yes
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.
When is a motor in star or delta connection?
Star (or wye) connection is where each of the three phases has a fourth conductor, neutral, as its current return. Current flow in this configuration is phase to neutral, which is also grounded back at the distribution center. There will be five total connections, phase A, B, and C, neutral, and (protective earth) ground. Delta connection is where each of the three phases uses the prior phase as its current return. Current flow in this configuration is phase to phase, and there is no neutral, though there is still a ground. There will be four total connections, phase A, B, and C, and (protective earth) ground.
In a star-delta starter what could be the problem if the motor does not rotate in star but rotates in delta?
One of the three phase contacts in the star contactor could be burned open or just open not allowing the motor to start because of a single phase condition. The time interval between star and delta connections could be small enough that the motor heaters will not catch the single phase condition and trip. When the motor goes into delta (which is now across the line starting) all of the three phase contacts in the contactor close and the motor starts.

IWant to see the connection of the daigram Star and Delta connections?
Google star delta motor connections. If a motor is wired in star-delta (Yd), it starts up with lots of torque and then switches over to delta for normal "running". This is because the start-up current per phase when delta connected is much larger than star.
Star delta starter for 3 phase induction motor?
A star-delta starter is a method used to reduce the starting current drawn by a 3-phase induction motor. It involves initially connecting the motor windings in a star configuration for starting, and then switching to a delta configuration for running. This helps to minimize voltage drops and prevents excessive current flow during start-up.
How does a star winding shifts to a delta winding in a three phase motor?
To shift from a star winding to a delta winding in a three-phase motor, the connections between the windings need to be rearranged. In a star winding, the ends of the windings are connected to a common point (neutral), while in a delta winding, each winding end is connected to the start of the next winding. By physically switching the connections, the motor can be reconfigured from star to delta winding.
What can be done with the help of star and delta conversions?
Using star delta method of wiring you can run high rated motor with out any high starting current. Star connection can provide 3 phase power as well as single phase load
How can you include phase failure relay in your star delta motor starter circuit?
The star delta motor starter circuit has to have a control voltage to energize the motor magnetic contractors. A phase failure relay monitors all three phases of the incoming supply lines. The phase failure relay also has auxiliary contacts on it. There are usually two sets of "C" form contacts. The control voltage for the starter circuit must be connected across the normally open (N.O.) contacts of one of these two sets. When the phase monitor is energized these N.O. contacts close supplying the control voltage to the circuitry of the star delta starters. If there is a phase interruption, phase reversal or phase loss, the phase failure relay will de-energize and the N.O. contacts will go back to their de-energized state. If the star delta motor starter is in use at the time, its control circuitry voltage will be lost and the delta motor magnetic contactor will open. The opening of this contactor will disconnect the motor from the failed three phase supply.
Are contactor points and bimetallic strip connected to the star delta starter of 3 phase induction motor?
yes
What is the star delta working principle?
when starting a 3 phase induction motor,first start with star connection,because reduced current is being applied and after start change it to delta connection then. full line current is applied to the motor.
Type of starters in three phase circuit?
The three common types of starters used in a three phase circuit are DOL (Direct-On-Line) starter, star-delta starter, and soft starter. DOL starters provide full voltage to the motor upon start, which can cause high inrush current. Star-delta starters initially start the motor in a star configuration to reduce current, then switch to delta for full speed. Soft starters gradually ramp up the voltage to the motor to reduce inrush current and mechanical stress on the motor.
