Chapter 26, Problem 4RQ

Refer to the circuit shown in Figure 26–9. Assume that timer TR is set for a delay of 10 seconds. When the START button is pressed, the motor starts with its windings connected in wye. After a period of 1 minute, the motor has not changed from wye to delta. Which of the following could cause this condition?

  1. a. TR timer coil is open.
  2. b. S contactor coil is open.
  3. c. 1M starter coil is open.
  4. d. The control transformer fuse is blown.

In relation to the circuit presented below, mark the alternative(s) that you consider correct. 1 To enable actuator A2 to advance, it is necessary to switch valve V2 to the leftmost position and ensure that valve V1 is in its initial (intermediate) position. 2 Switching valve V2 to the leftmost position allows actuator A2 to advance, but for this to happen, valve V1 must also be switched to the leftmost position. 3 When activating valve V1, using the locking lever installed on the left side of it, the two actuators (A1 and A2) are allowed to advance. 4 Hydraulic pump B1 is a simple variable displacement type. 5 Valves V1 and V2 have a TANDEM center.
