What are the formulae to calculate Line currents in DOL and star -delta starters?
How can we say that in star-delta starter the currents through the windings are 1/root3 of line current?
Please explain.

Upon reaching rated speed, line current of motors using both direct online starter and star delta starter are the same.

I = P / sqrt(3) x U x cos a

I is the line current of the motor.
P is the input power to the motor. (Usually stated on the motor nameplate)
U is the line to line voltage.
cos a is the power factor of the motor. (Usually stated on the motor nameplate)



As for the star delta starter, during start



The line current is 1/sqrt(3) because the voltage is reduced by 1/sqrt(3) as the motor winding is in star configuration.

Hello dinesh

have a look at http://www.lmphotonics.com/m_start.htm and http://www.lmphotonics.com/m_control.htm

Best regards,
Mark.
