  2. Korndörfer autotransformer starter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korndörfer_Autotransformer...

    Korndorfer starter with motor (M), autotransformer (AT) and three switches (1, 2, 3) In electrical engineering, the Korndorfer starter is a technique used for reduced voltage soft starting of induction motors. The circuit uses a three-phase autotransformer and three three-phase switches. This motor starting method has been updated and improved ...

  3. Autotransformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autotransformer

    In electrical engineering, an autotransformer is an electrical transformer with only one winding. The "auto" (Greek for "self") prefix refers to the single coil acting alone. In an autotransformer, portions of the same winding act as both the primary winding and secondary winding sides of the transformer. In contrast, an ordinary transformer ...

  4. Motor soft starter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_soft_starter

    A motor soft starter is a device used with AC electrical motors to temporarily reduce the load and torque in the powertrain and electric current surge of the motor during start-up. This reduces the mechanical stress on the motor and shaft, as well as the electrodynamic stresses on the attached power cables and electrical distribution network ...

  5. Motor controller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_controller

    A motor controller is a device or group of devices that can coordinate in a predetermined manner the performance of an electric motor. [1] A motor controller might include a manual or automatic means for starting and stopping the motor, selecting forward or reverse rotation, selecting and regulating the speed, regulating or limiting the torque, and protecting against overloads and electrical ...

  6. Zigzag transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zigzag_transformer

    It is used as a grounding transformer, creating a missing neutral connection from an ungrounded 3-phase system to permit the grounding of that neutral to an earth reference point; to perform harmonic mitigation, as they can suppress triplet (3rd, 9th, 15th, 21st, etc.) harmonic currents; [2] to supply 3-phase power as an autotransformer ...

  7. Growler (electrical device) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Growler_(electrical_device)

    The alternating magnetic flux set up by the growler passes through the windings of the armature coil, generating an alternating voltage in the coil. A short in the coil creates a closed circuit that will act like the secondary coil of a transformer, with the growler acting like the primary coil.
