What is the Starting of DC Motor?

Starting current definition

The starting current in a DC motor is defined as the initial large current that flows when the motor starts and needs to be limited to prevent damage.

The action of counterelectromotive force

The back electromotive force is the voltage generated by the rotation of the motor, which is the opposite of the supply voltage and helps regulate the starting current.

Starting method of DC motor

The main method of limiting the starting current involves the use of a starter with variable resistance to ensure the safe operation of the motor.

The use of the starter

The starter is an essential device that helps control the high starting current in the DC motor by increasing the external resistance.

Starter type

There are different types of starters, such as 3-point and 4-point starters, each designed for a specific motor type.

Cost Differences and Performance Comparison of 35kV New Energy Transformers Based on Dry-Type, Mineral Oil, and Vegetable Oil
Cost Differences and Performance Comparison of 35kV New Energy Transformers Based on Dry-Type, Mineral Oil, and Vegetable Oil
For users, when purchasing a 35kV new energy transformer, choosing between dry-type, mineral oil-filled, or vegetable oil-filled types involves multiple considerations. These include user habits, maintenance-free performance, safety and fire resistance, volume and weight, among others. However, cost differences are undoubtedly one of the most crucial factors.To illustrate the issue intuitively, this paper selects a three-level energy efficiency dual-winding new energy transformer with a rated ca

What is the connection group of a transformer?
What is the connection group of a transformer?
Transformer Connection GroupThe connection group of a transformer refers to the phase difference between the primary and secondary voltages or currents. It is determined by the winding directions of the primary and secondary coils, the labeling of their start and end terminals, and the connection mode. Expressed in a clock-like format, there are 12 groups in total, numbered from 0 to 11.The DC method is commonly used to measure the transformer's connection group, mainly to verify whether the con

What is the sequence for powering down the transformer?
What is the sequence for powering down the transformer?
The sequence for shutting down a main transformer is as follows: when de-energizing, the load side should be shut down first, followed by the power supply side. For energizing operations, the reverse order applies: the power supply side is energized first, then the load side. This is because: Energizing from the power supply side to the load side makes it easier to identify the fault range and take prompt judgment and handling measures in case of a fault, preventing the fault from spreading or e

What are the methods for switching operations of station transformers?
What are the methods for switching operations of station transformers?
Let's take an auxiliary power system with two station transformers as an example. When one station transformer needs to be out of service, there are two operation methods: non-interruptive power supply and instantaneous power interruption. Generally, the method of instantaneous power interruption on the low-voltage side is preferred.The operation method for instantaneous power interruption on the low-voltage side is as follows:Open the 380V power incoming circuit breaker of the corresponding sec
