Heeelp!
I have an 11kW/21A motor which is attached to a hydraulic power pack.
I have replaced the old panels with new, using the same star delta starting. When connected to a 415V outlet protected by a C32 breaker, the breaker will periodically trip. This has only manifested since the new...
Hi.
I need to alter the configuration of this motor wiring from star to delta so that I can use a VFD to control it (hopefully). If I remove the star connection from the N terminal am I safe to assume that these 3 wires will be in the correct orientation/ polarity to make the delta connection...
Hi there,
I got a call to a job, table saw (wood) tripping C/B straight away.
4kW motor on Star Delta Starter.
So I get to the job, after some investigation I find that the main contactor is welded shut and there is a phase to phase short circuit, I find that the motor tails to the windings...
Hi
I got called out to a faulty star delta starter on an old Stenner band saw Monday (was getting stuck in star and blow fuses) - So I ordered a new one to suit the 22kw 400v motor having calculated the overload to be 22.04A going by the plated current saying 38A. 38*0.58
Fitted it all today but...
Hi Guys,
Is my understanding of why it is bad for a star/delta motor to be stuck in star correct?
1) Star delta starting is used as a method of starting larger motors at a reduced voltage of root 3 , which reduces the large starting current drawn by the motor during start up, therefore...
Hi guys.
I have an electric oven with 6 elements.the connection, one thermostat has 4 element and the other termostat has 2 elements.
Its ,,delta" connected.
If the first thermostat is on then:
L1 connected to 4 elements.
L2 to 2 elements
L3 to 2 elements in delta.
If the second thermostat is...
I've got a call about a pump that is not working. It was a 30 kw motor with a star delta starter. The motor start but before it changes to delta it trips. And it look like the motor is single phasing. So i disconnect both cables at the motor and start it again. As soon as the delta contactor...
I have a question on 3 wire Delta connected winding with Phase Supply between X, Y & Z is 370 Volts.
What is the voltage between One Phase 'X' and the center tap of the opposite winding?
See attached doc.
hi guys i have an issue with one of two motor running star delta for a concrete mixer one motor is pulling out more current than the other one almost 10A difference (1st=39 , 2nd=48) knowing that the 2nd is rewinding both motor are same company
Amnesh Singh submitted a new resource:
Connections of a Three phase Motor STAR and DELTA. - THREE PHASE 400/600 Volt AC Motor STAR and DELTA Connection DIAGRAM

Well You all guys know how a Star Delta Motor Works, In Case Some New Sparks in the Electrical Industry wants to know they can download or follow this simple Diagram of a Three Phase Motor.
It Tells Both DELTA and STAR Connections of the Motor Windings.
I will soon put a wiring diagram of Star...
Hi all, I have a three phase 220v delta wiring system but the real voltage is about 240-245V by measuring between the pairs RS, RT, TS. I want to lower it to about 220V so I was thinking to use three auto-transformers 240-220V wired like this:
I expect to find 220V between the transformer...
Hi all
Been to a micro brewery today .
They have 2 water boilers with 3 phase immersion heaters in them (ie 3 x elements)
Originally they were wired to run single phase will all the lives and neutrals linked out and a 32A single phase supply connected to them.
Now they are wired in a star...
So I have a 55kw Star Delta starting motor. The motor was moved about 10feet from original position so I had to put new cabling in from Isolator to Motor. That's all was changed.
When I went to start it it blew a fuse when kicking into Delta.
Changed fuse and it happened again only this time it...
Hi and thanks for any replies.
I am predominantly an install electrician and don't have a lot of experience dealing with motors so any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have been asked to connect a CNC machine, a dust extractor and a pump.
The CNC is straight forward as it is just connected...
Hello all. I’m after a bit of advice. Daft question I’m sure but when wiring a star delta starter in a panel is it necessary to use the electrical interlocks, i.e for the coil of the delta contactor, would you take the wire through the N/C of the Star contactor first?
