Motor Protection
Coordination in a System

• Importance of Motor protection

I. Assure protection of people and assets / installations whatever the current levels
may be reached overload or short-circuits.
II. Keep production running with high availability.
III. Reduce service costs in case of trouble within decreasing operating durations and
replacement costs of products
• Standards and approvals for manual motor starters
All ABB low voltage devices are developed and manufactured according to the rules
set out in the IEC (International
Electrotechnical Commission). The IEC issues publications that act as a basis for the
world market. The applicable
standard is the IEC 60947 series for Europe and UL 60947 for North America. All
devices are built according to this
standard and in most countries, they are not subject to any other tests besides the
manufacturer responsibility. In
some countries, the law requires additional certification.

General product overview
• Basic function
Manual motor starters protect the motor and the installation against short-circuits and
overloads. They are three pole electro-mechanical protection devices with a release
for overload protection and short-circuit protection. Furthermore, they provide a
disconnect function for safe isolation of the installation and the power supply and
the can be used for switching loads ON and OFF manually.
-Power terminals
They allow the connection of up to two conductors with
different cross-sections for the main.
-ON/OFF handle (operator)
For switching ON and OFF; indication of a possible trip;
with integrated shut-off device. Switching on and off must be
done quickly and without interruption.
-Current setting dial
The dial makes it easy to set the device to the rated motor current.
-Label for marking

-TEST-Function
Allows testing of the trigger mechanism.

5
 -DIN rail mounting
Allows mounting the device on DIN rails 35x15 mm and 35x7.5 mm.
Manual motor starters are approved according IEC / EN 60947-2, IEC / EN 60947-4-1
and UL 60947-4-1A (previously UL 508). The protection function is realized with the
following sub-functions:
− overload protection
− short-circuit protection
− phase loss sensitivity
Definition according to IEC 60947-4-1
Coordination type 1:
− In the event of a short circuit, the contactor or the starter must not endanger
persons and equipment.
− The contactor or the starter need not be suitable for further operation without
repair and partial renewal.
− Damage to the contactor and the overload relay is permitted.
Coordination type 2:
− In the event of a short circuit, the contactor or the starter must not endanger
persons and equipment.
− The contactor or starter must be suitable for further use.

6
− The overload relay or other parts must not be damaged, except for the welding of
the contactor or starter contacts, if they are easy to
disconnect without appreciable deformation (for
example with a screwdriver).
Motor starter method
• Direct on-line
-Traditional starting method
- Full voltage with no control of the start
- Mostly used for small motors
- Mostly used for process which need to start/stop frequency
- Mostly used for fixed area
- Mostly used for fixed budget
Advantages
Electrical advantages
- Easy to use not complex
Mechanical advantages
- Save space
- Easy to wiring- Compact and cost efficient solution
Weak point
Potential electrical problems
- Voltage drops
- Tripping breakers
Potential mechanical problems
- Slipping belts - Heavy wear and tear - Damaged products
7
• Star-Delta Starter
- Lower starting current than DOL for
light loads
- Starting with low torque
- Mostly used for small and medium
load (Pump ,Compressor)
- Mostly used for high inertias initiated after full load speed
Advantages
Electrical advantages
- Reduce current when start
- Reduce torque when start
Weak point
Potential electrical problems
- Still have inrush current when change
from star to delta
- Cannot use for heavy load
Potential mechanical problems
- Need more power cable (At least 6 cables)
- Need more space in cabinet
- Still found problem with peak torque

8
• Softstarter
- Soft start and stop of full speed applications
- Reduced starting current
- Reduced starting torque
- Reduced acceleration
- Minimized mechanical wear
- Mostly used for all application
(Water Segment focus)
Advantages
Electrical advantages
- Reduce current when start
- Reduce torque when start
- Can control Torque when start/stop
- Many motor protection function
- Many function to start/stop mode
Mechanical advantages
- Extend lifetime of your mechanic
- Can connect with In Line and
Inside-Delta type.
Weak point
Potential electrical problems
- Product cost is expensive than DOL and
some case of Star-Delta
- Cannot control speed of motor

9
 Potential mechanical problems
- Need more space in cabinet
• VSD
- VSD vary speed applications
- Reduced starting current
- Reduced starting torque
- Reduced acceleration
- Minimized mechanical wear
- Mostly used for all application
