Wiring Forward and Reversing Motor Starters with Superimposed Schematics

#AccessToPower #Access Electric #Forward/Reversing Starters
In this episode of AccessToPower, we dive deep into two different wiring methods of Forward and Reversing Starters and provide you with detailed step-by-step instructions. With the help of superimposed schematics and visuals, we ensure that you grasp the concepts easily and gain a greater understanding of Forward and Reversing Controls.

Whether you're an aspiring electrician, an engineering student, or simply a curious learner, this video is designed to equip you with the knowledge you need.

Throughout the video, we superimpose detailed schematics onto the actual devices being wired, providing you with a visual aid that enhances your understanding. By presenting the information in this manner, we aim to bridge the gap between theory and practice, making it easier for you to apply the concepts in real-world scenarios.

easily the most helpful video ive ever seen regarding this, going through the schematic really changes a lot thanks

[jctai]

Hey thanks again for the overlay of the schematic. Clarifies things greatly.

For the purposes of the viewer you should put a piece of blue tape on the motor shaft so we can see the motor reverse directions. Great video.

[comingtofull-ageinchrist]

Great explanation on the difference between the two! Thanks!

[erneztudofia]

It makes sense and i've given a thumb up.

Thanks so much brother ❤❤

Top-notch vids. Thank you. When are we going to see you on R - umble?

[RGL]

Great job on explaining and showing how this all works and why. Would you be able and willing to give us the part numbers and model numbers of all the components you used in this video, except for the motor.

[stevhandingwall]

Can you provide the link for the contactors and overload relay you used in video?

[gilbertopatino]

Thank you very much for a great video 👍

Im learning this in class right now, and your videos have been very helpful. But im just confused about one thing. On the schematic the holding contact at 13[ ]14, shows that it is NO, but 13/14 is a NC contact. Could you please explain what im missing? please and thank you

[rayprospecting]

Greate video and explanations. By any chance would you be able to put out a bill of material on all the components you used in this video. I'm looking to wire my garage elevator in this manner. One switch downstairs one upstairs and one on the lift.

Glad to see you back. What am I missing? If the concern is the ability of the motor to be quickly reversed, what is the advantage/difference between using contactors on the starters or CB’s on the PB’s??? I’m not trying to start anything or say anything is wrong, I’m just trying to figure out how using the contactors is better than using the contact blocks.
Thank you

Can this be done using a breaker, two contactors, a “stop” button, and two momentary closed buttons that only close the circuit only while the button is pushed? Can a second breaker be used on the neutral in place of the overload? I’m dealing with a leeson 120v ac motor

The second method of wiring is usually found where high torque motors are used eg hoists or shutters, since they run at much slower speeds and not affected as much as high speed motors.

It's called motor pluging foward to reverse not a problem 21:10 21:10

It's so strange when you add protection (OL) at the end (on N). Technically it works, but for service it sucks...
My ideology is: first protection, then control buttons, then contactors. And N is connected directly to contactor (A2 terminal) and it is always here.
So when you test with voltmeter, you meassure the voltage between contactors A2 and any control circuit point.

Hi boss. I’ve been an electrician for around 5 years and recently landed a maintenance job at a mining site where we use vfd’s, hoa’s, forward/reverse starters, etc etc…are there any books or courses you would recommend? We have numerous types of vfds..525s, 700s, 750 something’s, etc and it’s been a real struggle trying to figure out even basic vfd functions like where to land your hand/auto. Any info helps. Thankyou sir
