2. Motor control center - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_control_center

   Each motor controller contains a contactor or a solid-state motor controller, overload relays to protect the motor, fuses or a circuit breaker to provide short-circuit protection, and a disconnecting switch to isolate the motor circuit. Three-phase power enters each controller through separable connectors.

3. Relay - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relay

   This thermal protection operates relatively slowly allowing the motor to draw higher starting currents before the protection relay will trip. Where the overload relay is exposed to the same ambient temperature as the motor, a useful though crude compensation for motor ambient temperature is provided. [22] The other common overload protection ...

4. Magnetic starter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_starter

   Contactor with overload relay. A magnetic starter is an electromagnetically operated switch which provides a safe method for starting an electric motor with a large load. . Magnetic starters also provide under-voltage and overload protection and an automatic cutoff in the event of a power fai

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 ...

   The relays can also be classified on the type of power source that they use to work. A dual powered protection relay powered by the current obtained from the line by a CT. The striker is also shown. Self-powered relays operate on energy derived from the protected circuit, through the current transformers used to measure line current, for example.
