Attachedare two typicalcontroland wiringdiagrams. Drawing1 is the control diagramfor a power circuitbreakerand Drawing2 is a controland powerwiring diagramfor a motor startingcircuit. Referto these drawingsto answerthe following questions. 1 Referto Drawing1 for questions to 13 1.) circuitis (lncludelevel and type of The voltagefor the breakertrip/close currentis List the terminalblockstud numbersthat connectthe voltageto the breaker heatercircuits. that connectthe voltageto the breaker List the terminalblockstud nunnbers trip/close circuits.

questions.This is a motor startingcircuit Referto Drawing2 for the remaining that uses a reactorto limit the startingcurrentto the motor while it is acceleratingup to speed. After a predetermine time interval, which shouldbe long enoughto allow the motor to accelerate, startingreactorsare removedfrom the circuitby shorting the them out. The motor draws a large load current,so currenttransformers used to are power. The controlschematicis couplethe overloadrelay sensorsto the main ac personnel labelled with wire numbers1 to 10 to help designers and maintenance identifythe circuitconnections. 14.)
