The soft starter is a type of motor starter that uses the voltage reduction technique to reduce the voltageduring the starting of the motor. The soft starter offers a gradual increase in … See more

In a three phase induction motor, two SCRs are connected in an anti-parallel configuration along each phase of the motor making it a total of 6 SCRs. These SCRs are c… See more

The main component used for controlling the voltage in a soft starter is a thyristor. It is a controlled rectifier that starts conduction of the current flow in only one direction w… See more

Smooth Startup: Unlike conventional motor starter, it provides very gradual increase of voltage thus speed that results in a very smooth startup. There is no mechanical stress what… See more
