Motor Control Circuits and Functions for Schools

A small motor can be started by simply plugging it into an electrical receptacle or by using a switch or circuit breaker. A large motor requires a specialized switching unit called a motor starter or motor contactor. Once they are running, there are many other aspects to safe and efficient motor operation. Motor control refers to manual or automatic methods for starting, stopping, controlling speed, reversing, and protecting a motor. These controls are achieved using a variety of circuits, connections and sensors.
