This is a practical application task that tests your ability to apply the knowledge and skills acquired
in the vocational subject. The work required from you is an important and compulsory component
of your studies.

1. GENERAL INFORMATION
1.1 Study the task carefully.
1.2 Note the mark and time allocations per sub-task and for the task as a whole.
1.3 Note the submission date(s).
1.4 Study the resources required carefully.
1.5 Use the assessment tool as guidance on how your work will be marked.
1.6 You are required to provide proof that you submitted work done by yourself.

2. DESCRIPTION OF THE TASK

You are required to install, test and commission an automatic three-phase AC Star/Delta
starter and compile a report on the various tests and methods used during this task.

The main contactor with the pneumatic timer is used because the main contactor is always
energised. In the middle is the Delta contactor with a thermal overload for motor protection
in case the motor exceeds the ampere rating set on the thermal overload. On the right is
the Star contactor which is the first contactor to be energised with the main contactor. Then
when the timer reaches its time limit, the Star contactor de-energises, the Delta contactor
energises and the motor runs at full load.

You must draw the power circuit and control circuit, identify the components to be wired,
wire, test and operate the installation in accordance with SANS 10142 Code of Practice.
You are expected to properly construct, connect and utilise all the necessary components
as per the instructions handed to you.
