While it’s a reduced voltage method for starting, you must also remember it’s a reduced torque start also. If the motor can’t reach full speed in star, when it goes to delta, you can still see a huge amp draw spike if the changeover happens below full rpm.

The best explanation I have seen regarding Star Delta and why Star and Delta are used. Clarified some of my misnomas and the explanation helped me make sense and agree with what was being stated. Many discussions and forums I have looked at are under the impression that the motors run slower in star. Speed of a motor is determined by pole pairs and the frequency of the power source and then affected by slip between rotor and stator with flux density being a factor. Flux density is directly proportional to current. With 58% of the current in Star, there would be a reciprocating reduction in flux density. I suppose with lower torque due to lower flux density in the motor, motor slip may be greater and this would then align with comments that the motor runs slower than in Delta. Something I think I would like to test some time. Once again, a brilliant presentation of this subject.

Hi Paul Thank you for this informative and amazing video. I think beginners might be confused about the difference between the wiring of Delta connections shown in 2:50 and 5:00. Where, in the first connection, U1 and W2 were shorted, whereas, in the second, you shorted U1 and V2. The reason behind that is that shorting any two terminals of different letters results in having the motor connected in a delta configuration.

You've done a fantastic job of explaining star vs. delta configurations. I might add that one practical application can be when you need to cut your motor speed (roughly) in half. I've seen this done many times. It can be cheaper to do this in applications where the precise change of motor speeds through the use of frequency drives (VFDs) is not necessary.

Marwin Tisado My comments were in regards to min. 5:25 Motor terminals should be U1-W2, V1-U2, and W1-V2, because you need to be able to setup the motor for Star or Delta using the links. Thus from the main contactor you will have connections: L1 to U1, L2 to V1 and L3 to W1. From the star/delta contactors you will have connections: L1 to W2, L2 to U2 and L3 to V2. Hope this makes sense.

@karlisbrinkmanis8728 3 жыл бұрын

Great video! Nevertheless, there is one question that crossed. When you start showing the automation of changing star-delta at 4:50, in the animation it is demonstrated that W2 is connected to the yellow phase, U2 is connected to the blue phase and V2 is connected to the red phase, when delta configuration is being used. However, earlier in the video, at 2:55 it is shown that U2 along with V1 is connected to the yellow phase, W2 along with U1 is connected to the red phase and finally V2 along with W1 is connected to the blue phase. So I started wondering, why is there a change all of a sudden, to be more precise, why in the case of delta configuration W2 is connected to the red phase, but when it comes to star-delta automation is W2 connected to the yellow phase? I really can not find any logic behind that and would be grateful if you could answer my question.

I've watched this video multiple times and I caught that today and it confused me. Technically, it is still delta but it is confusing because normally delta is "across the line" which would be U1 to W2, V1 to U2, W1 to V2 and to be consistent with the live motor that was shown, it would be the same. Still a great video and I have recommended it countless times to people for a good visual to understand at least the concept.

Its not just the sudden drain and voltage drop from starting in delta, the motor itself experiences very big forces. When i studied this stuff when i was a teen we got to do lots of practical stuff on our own, starting big motors in delta released big forces that would twist/shake the motors violently and it made terrible cranking sounds for a short time.

I may be wrong, but at 5:00 shouldnt the wire from V2 be conneted into the L3 and also U2-L2 W2-LI, effectively W2-V2, V1-U2 and U1-W2 would be connected together making a delta connection, but they are flipped again

Well, those colours were an EU thing, now you can change back at will.

@@jesperdahl1486 I doubt we will though... Mainly because the new colors are used to identify that the installation must comply with part P regulations I think it would be good to use the old colors but I have a feeling that if they ever do change again they'll sooner be a new color code completely

For beginners that is certainly true. But in the real world it hardly makes any difference. Once your worklplace is clean enough to work there you can distinguish the dirfferent colors pretty easily. And once you go into wires with 11 leads then each individualbone will have the same color anyways. And you have to look for a small printed number on the wire for identification.

What about the relationship between voltage difference 58% & current difference 33% , why not both a positive ratio?

The timer from my experience has a delay change over time of 40ms. This is to allow the arc generated on the star contactor to dissipate when switching off before the delta contactor energises. I have a formulae that works out the motor direction without energising the motor as long as the main supply is in synch

@johnwilson6298 2 жыл бұрын

Correct me if i am wrong, but as an industrial electrician for 40 years, we used to set the timer to allow the motor to accelerate to full (or almost) full speed. this is mainly to reduce starting current on a limited capacity supply

Awesome video. I'm curious how the cross phase of wiring doesn't create a fault. Minor edit needed @ 9:21, meant to say multiplied by.

@@scottkasper6378 there a video to explain, or example? Looks like on a CW rotation, can connect to the ascending phase, but does that need to go through a load or how that work?

@JohnAbrahamsen 5 жыл бұрын

@@MattFerguson26 It has to go through a load of course, or the resistance will be 0, thereby also the voltage drop will mean that the circuit will be at 0V. The breaker will also pop since you will be drawing too much current.
