A DOL starter is a direct-on-line starter used in electrical systems to start and stop motors.

DOL stands for Direct-On-Line.
It is the simplest and most common type of motor starter.
The DOL starter directly connects the motor to the power supply, providing full voltage at start.
It consists of a contactor, overload relay, and start and stop buttons.
When the start button is pressed, the contactor closes and the motor starts.
The overload relay protects the motor from excessive current.
