Single-phase and 3-phase AC squirrel cage induction motors need some type of control circuit to initiate a start or stop function. The two types of ladder control circuits commonly used are the 2-wire ...

Isolating problems in the control circuitIn Part 1 of this two-part series, we presented a 3-phase, 480VAC motor circuit with its associated controls (Figure). We stepped through a logical, systematic ...

Motor Control Centers are designed to centralize a large amount of electrical equipment. Panel Built MCC buildings ensure these electrical motors run in a controlled and secured environment.
