Automatic Star Delta Starter using Relays and
Adjustable Electronic Timer for Induction Motor

Abstract:
• Design of a starter.

• Reduce the starting current.

• In star connection current in different phases while

line voltage is the 3 times the phase voltage.

• In Delta connection the voltage is same as that of

phase voltage.

Variable Resistor

• It is an electronic component.

• Adjusting circuit resistance to control voltage or

current of that circuit or part of that circuit.

• Electrical resistance is varied by sliding a wiper

contact along a resistance track.

• Resistance is adjusted at preset value.

Future Scope:

• Compared to the reduced voltage methods it is the

simple and cheapest way of starting the motor.

• But it takes significant inrush currents during the

switching operation.

Conclusion:
• An automatic over and under voltage protector system has
been implemented using induction motor starter.

• Consequently, protect them from the danger of being

damaged due to voltage fluctuation.

• It is used for low to medium voltage and light starting torque

motors.

• It is the cheapest way to reduce the starting current, and it is

in the order of 3-4 times that in case of DOL starting of IM
