Industrial Control Basics: Part 3, Starters
The control circuit can derive the power from either of the following three ways:
• Common Control: This type of control is when the power source of the control
circuit is the same as the motor.
• Separate Control: This is the most popular type of control. As the name
suggests, the control circuit derives power from a separate source in this
arrangement. Generally, the power derived is lower in voltage as compared to
the motor’s power source.
• Transformer Control: As the name suggests, the control circuit derives power
from a control circuit transformer. Generally, the power derived is lower in
voltage as compared to the motor’s power source.
