DC Motor Starters
To avoid the above dangers while starting a Basics of electricity
DC motor, it is necessary to limit the starting
current. So, a DC motor is started by using a

starters, such as 3 point starter, 4 point

The basic concept behind every DC motor

starter is adding external resistance to the
armature winding during starting.
From the followings, 3 point starters and 4
point starters are used for starting shunt
wound motors and compound wound
motors.

the supply, and the armature winding gets
connected with resistances R1 to R5 in
series. During starting, full resistance is
added in series with the  armature winding.
Then, as the lever is moved further, the
resistance is gradually is cut out from the
armature circuit. Now, as the lever reaches
to position 6, all the resistance is cut out
from the armature circuit and armature gets
directly connected across the supply. The
electromagnet 'E' (no voltage coil) holds the
lever at this position. This electromagnet
releases the lever when there is no (or low)
supply voltage.

It can be seen that, when the arm is moved

from the position 1 to the last position, the
starter resistance gets added in series with
the eld winding. But, as the value of starter
resistance is very small as compared to the
shunt resistance, the decrease in shunt eld
current may be negligible. However, to
overcome this drawback a brass or copper
arc may be employed within a 3 point
starter which makes a  connection between
the moving arm and the eld winding, as
shown in the gure of 4 point starter below.
When the motor is overloaded beyond a
prede ned value, 'overcurrent release
electromagnet' D gets activated, which
short-circuits electromagnet E and, hence,
releases the lever and the motor is turned
o .

4 Point Starter
The main di erence between a 3 point
starter and a 4 point starter is that the no
voltage coil (electromagnet E) is not
connected in series with the eld coil. The
eld winding gets directly connected to the
supply, as the lever moves touching the
brass arc (the arc below the resistance
studs). The no voltage coil (or Hold-on coil) is
connected with a current limiting resistance
Rh. This arrangement ensures that any
change of current in the shunt eld does not
a ect the current through hold-on coil at all.
This means, electromagnetic pull of the
hold-on coil will always be su cient so that
the spring does not unnecessarily restore
the lever to the o position. A 4 point starter
is used where eld current is to be adjusted
by means of a eld rheostat for the purpose
of operating the motor above rated speed
by reducing the eld current.

DC Series Motor Starter

Construction of DC series motor starters is

very basic as shown in the gure. The start
arm is simply moved towards right to start
the motor. Thus, maximum resistance is
connected in series with the armature
during starting and then gradually
decreased as the start arm moves towards
right. This starter is sometimes also called as
a 2 point starter.
The no load release coil holds the start arm
to the run position and leaves it when the
 p
voltage is lost.
