Autotransformer Starters
By varying the turns of transformer , input supply can be varied. This reduces the the voltage to xV (where x is the
AT's turn ratio) and line current to x^2 times I.
Well it is no brainer that in star the phase voltage is 1/sqrt(3)1/sqrt(3) times the line voltage. So by connecting
the stator winding in star the starting current is reduced. As the motor picks up the speed it is connected to delta
