supply when an overload fault occurs. DOL starter mainly used with low capacity three-phase
induction motors.

Different parts of this Wiring, 

MCB

Here you can see two MCBs are used for this circuit. A three-pole MCB is the main power
MCB through which the main three-phase power supply for the motor is provided. Another
one is a Single Pole MCB for the control circuit. When the control MCB is turned On, the
control circuits will be charged. So to operate this DOL starter, first, you have to turn on the
main power MCB then the Control MCB.

Contactor

Here you can see a three-pole contactor is used. This contactor has three power contacts and
four auxiliary contacts. The magnetic coil of this contactor is designed to operate at 230V AC
supply.

Here a three-phase thermal overload relay is used. This relay has one NC contact and one
NO contact.

Push Button Switches

Here two push button switches are used. One NC Push Button(Green Colour) to turn off the
motor and one NO Push Button(Red Colour) to turn on the motor.

Indication Lamps

Here you can see we have used three indication lamps for indication purposes. Red for ON,
Green for OFF, and Yellow for Trip.
So when the motor is in off condition then only the green lamp will glow, when the motor is in
on the condition then only the red lamp will glow, when the motor is tripped due to overload
then both green and Yellow lamps will glow.

Procedures to make DOL Starter Wiring

First of all, you have to select Contactor, Overload Relay, Switches with proper ratings. So,
you can refer to this article - Sizing The DOL Motor Starter Parts (Contactor, Fuse, Circuit
Breaker and Thermal Overload Relay)

Power Circuit

1. Connect the main incoming three-phase power supply to the main power MCB as per the
diagram.

2. Connect the outgoing of the power MCB to the Contactor incoming terminals L1, L2, L3.

3. Connect the incoming terminals of the overload relay with the contactor outgoing terminals
T1, T2, T3

4. Connect the motor terminals to the overload relay outgoing terminals as per the diagram.

Control Circuit

1. Take a loop from the R phase for the control circuit and connect the control MCB as per the
diagram.

2. Connect the neutral wire to the Contactor A2 terminal and also to one terminal of each
indication lamp.

3. Connect the NO, NC contacts of the contactor to the control MCB outgoing as per the 
diagram.
