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. Dashpot timer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dashpot_timer

   The dashpot timer is a fluid time-on-timer that can be used in definite time motor acceleration starters and controllers. A dashpot timer is a container, a piston, and a shaft. The dashpot timer functions when a magnetic field forces a piston to move within a cylinder when the coil is energized.

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 ...
