Textbook Question
Chapter 24, Problem 1SQ
In the event of line voltage fluctuations or failure, how is the starter maintained in a closed position?
Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
Explain how the starter is maintained in a closed position during the event of line voltage fluctuations or failure.
Explanation of Solution
If the time is delayed, low-voltage release relay device is used with the magnetic starter and a momentary contact push button station; the motor can automatically reconnect with the power lines after a voltage failure or voltage fluctuations of short duration.
Refer to Figure 24-2 in the textbook, the electrolytic capacitor represented as C1 is charged through the rectifier. If the line voltage fluctuates or fails completely, the electrolytic capacitor can discharge through the control relay to maintain the coil as energized through which the starter can be maintained in a closed position. The discharging time required by the capacitor is a function of resistance in the circuit and capacitance of the device.
Conclusion:
Thus, the process of a starter maintained in a closed position during the event of line voltage fluctuations or failure is explained.

This is the effect of the RL circuit formed by the inductance and resistance of the transmission line and the loads (light bulbs, appliance, etc.) In fact, even a single straight wire has inductance. The inductance (and the resistance) of a long transmission line can be problematic if the system is not properly designed. The voltage on a power transmission line is alternating current but the effect of transmission line can be simulated by a DC circuit as shown below, where R=0.005 2 /km and L=0.04 H/km representing the resistance and inductance of the transmission line per km relationship that is with the ration: L-8 R. In the circuit, Right =160 represents light bulb resistances, R₁ = 7 represents the resistance of a 'major appliance', and the switch indicates when the appliance is turn on.
