Star delta control with power circuit

Question

Accepted Answer

Star delta control is a method used to reduce the starting current of induction motors.

Star delta control involves initially connecting the motor windings in a star configuration for starting, then switching to a delta configuration for running.
This method is used to reduce the starting current and torque on the motor, which helps in preventing damage to the motor and the connected electrical network.
It is commonly used in applications where the starting current needs to be limited, such as in large industrial motors.
The switching between star and delta configurations is typically controlled by a specialized starter or control panel.
