Star delta motor connection

For star delta stater,the motor connection must have 6 cables from control panel and 6 terminals at induction motor ( U1,U2,V1,V2,W1,W3).To wiring the motor connection for star delta starter,the important thing that we must fully understand is about the basic of STAR DELTA MAGIC TRIANGLE.

For detail about star delta stater please read my last post about it. From this triangle diagram,we can determine the correct phase,cable termination for right terminal and the rotation.As we know,the star delta stater is so tricky if we not fully understand the concept and their method. This time i want share my technique when perform wiring task and connected to the star delta stater for induction motor.

Don`t worry,it simple and easy if we understand the basic concepts.I explains detail step by step how to do it :D

 

What is Star Delta connection?

Star delta magic triangle

When we refer to this diagram,We can see correct terminal for the winding for each phase : *CAUTION: Please refer to the name plate of motor to confirm the winding numbering ( U1,U2,V1,V2,W1,W2 ) and the motor connection of winding.

Why it very important??Because each manufacturing have their own style for numbering and winding motor connection.

Star Delta phase and terminals

RED PHASE : U1 and W2 YELLOW PHASE : U2 and V1 BLUE PHASE : V2 and W1 So..from this formula,we must wiring the motor follow the phase color code.

See my example below :-

We can refer the complete wiring for star delta starter diagram below.If you want change their rotation for clock-wise or anti clock-wise,you need change two of phase ( RED or BLUE) at delta contactor.I share the technique how to change rotation in my next post.

If you want motor rotation for clock-wise,the phase colors are RED,YELLOW,BLUE.But if you want anti clock-wise rotation,the phase colors are BLUE,YELLOW,RED.For star delta control wiring diagram,please refer to my post about star delta diagram control

    DER SIR
    PLS REPLY ME FORMULA OF SELECT CONTACTOR & OVERLOAD REALY FOR STAR DELTA AND DOL STARTING.
    THANK YOU

  2. Please give the curve showing the current surge (current vs time) during change-over fro star to delta as well as the current vs time curve if the same motor is started in direct on line method, in the same graph sheet. Also please give korndorfer type connection(with transition resistors)-for no break to avoid current surge.

    Hello sir ,
    I’m having a small dounbt , in terms of converting a star winded motor to a delta winded .. motor was labelled as star rated in the motor name plate. so pls tel me is it possible to change the star winded to a delta winded ??

    • If you want run the motor using star delta starter,u must take off all cooper bar at terminal of electric motor.so no connection of star or delta.
      MAKE SURE : The motor design is DELTA connection only for star delta starter.if you used motor design STAR connection,your winding will burn out :D

    • Presley Chilumbu says

      If you motor control is DOL, bring out the 6 leads out of the motor and if already paired they will be labeled T1U1, T2V1, T3W1, T4U2, T5V2, T6W2. Depending on your desired motor rotation connect R(T1U1,T6W2), Y(T2V1,T4U2) and B(T3W1,T5V2). Your motor will be connected in Delta.

  4. sir ,i dnt get my ans of qus yet
    my problem is that whn motor comes to delta contactor the motor stops wht cn be the reasons behind this

    • mukul,please check your power supply wiring for motor terminal.make sure ur 3 phase wiring from delta contactor to motor is correct.

      • fayyaz says

        see reason to stop motor in revers direction in delta connection is the one winding is getting connected in same phase.

      • sreeraj says

        check the star delta contactor and main contactor connection and motor connection and power supply also

    • shriram says

      for my experience, cont-actor is not working

  5. Please give the time setting of changeover delay from star to delta. Does it depend on kW or speed or LRC of motor?.

    • Time setting for change over is so subjective,it depend on load and inertia.Theoretically star change to delta when it reach 80% of full speed.from my experience,i setting around 10 sec to 15 sec maximum.

  6. zonaid hasan says

    hello,
    i have a 20hp motor(20*746 watt=14920 watt).it requires a star delta control system.what should be the three MC ‘s rating.as two MC’s will switch operation,their ratings will be different?plz help me out with this MC’s ratings for this 20hp

    • First, you must know the Full Load ampere for your motor.
      FLA = 14920/(415*1.732*0.9)
      FLA = 23 Ampere

      So for MAIN contactor
      = FLA / FLI
      = 23 ampere

      For DELTA contactor
      = FLA x 0.58
      = 23 x 0.58
      = 13.4 @ 15 ampere

      For STAR contactor
      = FLA x 0.33
      = 23 x 0.33
      = 7.6 @ 8 ampere

      Please used AC 3 rating for contactor..please refer my last post about magnetic contactor sizing

      NEMA CODE :
      430.22 (C) Wye-Start, Delta-Run Motor. For a wye-start, delta-run connected motor, the selection of branch-circuit conductors on the line side of the controller shall be based on the motor full-load current. The selection of conductors between the controller and the motor shall be based on 58 percent of the motor full-load current.

      why multiply with 0.58?

      The Star/Delta starter is manufactured from three contactors, a timer and a thermal overload. The contactors are smaller than the single contactor used in a Direct On Line starter as they are controlling winding currents only. The currents through the winding are 1/root 3 (58%) of the current in the line.
      There are two contactors that are close during run, often referred to as the main contactor and the delta contactor. These are AC3 rated at 58% of the current rating of the motor. The third contactor is the star contactor and that only carries star current while the motor is connected in star. The current in star is one third of the current in delta, so this contactor can be AC3 rated at one third of the motor rating.

    I saw ur web side it’s very awesome and grate, the way u explains is awesome and to point also. I love ur way. Dear sir I join mine life first job as electrical tech. I am new in plant. I am working at wharf area. My boss told me to make a presentation on Star and Delta, I need to know what I tell him in this topic, he says I need mathematical equations also and explanation and trouble shooting, what problem it can comes, how to tell without name plate, is it delta or star connection? in any motor. We are normally using 400v and 3 phase motors at every place. Need ur guidance to make best presentation.

    Will be looking forward for ur kind reply.

    Tc sir
    God bless u

    Thanks

  17. i would like to ask regarding the current above the two contactors namely main and delta when running operation.somebody told me that the above of these contactors have the same current.and the current under these contactors is less than the above.He is trying to say that the above current are the line to line currents while under the contactors are per phase currents.We are arguing the size of the conductors above of these two contactors, namely the main and delta contactors. I beleive that the above of these contactors are still in the per phase condition. The point were the two line 1 e.g. line 1 of main and line 1 of delta connected or joint,this is were the line to line condition.
    I hope you will give me clarifiacatioin regarding this matter.
    thank you

    • Dear Dancan,
      Use your multimeter and select continuity to checked pair or motor terminal.If buzzer beep that mean it the pair for the winding connection.

      U1 = U2
      V1 = V2
      W1 = W2

  24. I like to Automation from you

  25. I have a problem when i connect to star-delta connection.
    The motor is 7.5kw.
    When i connect into star-delta, it run well in abt 8A, everything seem OK but when i leave it for one day (the motor is running with 24hr timer with 4hr run and 4 hr rest cont.), the contactor burned. I already check all wiring mega OK, component OK, my contactor with 12A i even change to 20A (incl MC, Star & Delta contactor) but it still burned. the change over relay is working well also, i set it abt 5-10 sec for change over.
    I feed up and change it to run in DOL, it work properly and have no problem with the same 24hr timer although earlier i suspect the 24hr timer problem make it start-stop too many time.
    I doubt is it the motor problem (let said if coil less or something related to star/delta running not enough speed when change over) will cause this matter which is abnormal for me.
    However, there are 3 set of motor with same size that i have the same problem with it.

    Anyone can help to answer me?

  26. jackie says

    dear sir,
    surley it is possible to swap 2 phases over on motor connection box?
    instead of delta contactor

  27. jackie says

    ^ for reversing direction of motor

  28. the phase shifting from main to delta contactor should take place,while changing star to delta.

    if anybody can clear this ,please reply

  29. Hello you have mentioned the wrong numbering, kindly correct the same.

  30. fayyaz says

    what connection shown for motor for starter is ok but to change direction just changingtwo clourof delta contactor will notwork i ids agree with you.just go throw the circuit.

    • Hello..
      roughly description :-
      Relay : Normally in small size and for small application.Common used for control circuit or application.power supply range : 12 DC – 240 VAC

      Contactor :Have several type and size.Normally use for power control such as motor starter and power supply distribution for internal used.Rating size for contactor depend on kW or Full load ampere.

  34. iam greatly informed on your elaboration on electrical issues. pls sir can give me a detail explanation on how to wire a three phase capacitors to a three phase motor star delta starter panel

  35. I like the way you elaborate on electrical issues. Please,can you tell me how to connect three phase capacitors to a 30KW three phase motor in the star delta starter control panel

  36. Anil Paul Jacob says

    Fakansa, There are capacitor banks which can be used on electrical networks with induction loads (motors). in this, APFCR (auto power factor correction relay will take care of capacitor selection = number of capacitors required for power factor correction will be selected by APFCR by its own. In your case you need to connect only one capacitor to the 30 KW motor. You can connect the capacitor through a contactor with required ampere capacity. and this contactor can be switched on manually after starting of motor. in another option you can control the contactor for the capacitor through a timer (making on delay after the motor running in full speed) to avoid the surge current.

    • HI Anil,

    I have two motors each capacity 110KW 440V pf.75. Two motors simultaneously drive a fly wheel through pulley. Weight of Fly wheel is approx. 16T and dia. 3Meter. These motors have Star/ delta connection. Both motors start together. What should be the star to delta time set.

    • Hi AK Majumdar,
      This is a popular question for star delta starter.Ok from my experience,to setting the timer from star to delta,we cannot get the perfect time but we can used 2 types of measurement to get approximate time (second ).

      1. Use the clamp on meter ( analogue ) : Get information for motor Full Load Ampere(FLA),measure the ampere during star and set stop watch.Stop the watch and see the time when ampere reach 80 % of motor FLA.Use the time to setting your timer.

      2) Use the RPM meter : Get information for motor RPM speed.Use the RPM meter to measure motor RPM and use the stop watch to get a how many second that motor achieve 80% of RPM during star.Use that time to setting your timer.

      Typical times for Star Delta starter timer is around 10 until 25 seconds…but its depend on load.I hope this technique can answer your question.Please read my post about How to set timer for change over of star delta starter

I am just trying to acquaint myself with a few systems of industrial equipment and yours describes things in such a visual way that it makes it easier. I will have to try and use your system in my timer relays. Thank you.

    I have an air compressor that has a Wye Start Delta Run start up. While doig some current tests we noticed 40 Amps more leaving the contactore than coming in on the mains. I would like to send you an attachment to better explain what we are showing but when you add what is going out on the two conactors it is more than what is coming in on the main conductors (one set of three). Can I send you my drawing?

    I have a problem in selecting the motor voltage Rating for Star Delta Connection,
    I want to Buy a 45 KW Induction Motor but I’m confuse of what is the Voltage Rating that suitable for a Star Delta Controller? We have 380 Voltage supply Source, The motor Voltage Rating available are: 220/380 and 380/660 which is which, and Why? Please Help me find an answer in this matter…..

    Video from connection of 30 kw motor in production:

  111. We have connected (3-core double cable ) 6-lead to 20hp motor junction box.now we have to measure the no load or full load, as there is 6-wire so shall we average out the 6-reading for no load ? Or we have to take with 2-wire at a time.

  112. Sir,

    Good day!

    Normally as per diagram of Wye-Delta Starting – U1, V1 & W1 are connected in the Main Contactor.

    What will happen if – U2, V2 & W3 are connected in Main Contactor? Then – U1, U2, W2 are connected in the Delta Contactor?

    Hope someone can share their experienced if they encounter this kind of connections.

    Thanks!

    Dear sir I want to know about U1,V1,W1 and U2,V2,W2 how can i measure and realize them if the motor have not marked.
    Please I need ur help

    Hello please I want to know, what is required to change start to Delta star connection and its implications

  115. The Schematic below the title:
    Star Delta phase and terminals
    RED PHASE : U1 and W2 YELLOW PHASE : U2 and V1 BLUE PHASE : V2 and W1 So..from this formula,we must wiring the motor follow the phase color code.

    Shows U2 twice; needs correction. The blue wire should be marked V2 (not U2)

  116. Rob McLean says

    What should the thermal overload setting be set at for a Star Delta started connected motor?

    Thanks

  117. Hi,Dear Mr/Mrs
    I have a quastion about Delta &Star connection.Well 37kw motor(nameplate) 380/660v Dela and the voltages supplier is 380 v. Now does it logical to run motor with Delta &Star.On the contrary , 37kw 380/660v Delta /Star runs with just Delta connection.
    I am looking forward hearing from every one.
    Best Regards
    Daniel

  118. i have the same case with this question.
    And you must set very carefully for your thermal overload relay.
