An electrical schematic diagram for the power circuit of a reversible star delta or wye

delta motor controller was tackled in our previous article, where it showed an
illustration of the wiring combinations using three (3) phase circuit breakers, magnetic
contactors and thermal overload relay to achieve the different variation of motor
TERMINAL connections in star and delta configuration in relation to the three (3)
phase supply source voltage, hence the term power circuit diagram.

As with all motor controllers, the power circuit is always accompanied with its
associated control circuit which is an integral part of the motor controller that provides
operator command access in order to control the power circuit either in running or
stopping the motor or selecting the forward or reverse rotation of the motor.

The electrical diagram below shows an schematic illustration of a forward reverse star
delta or wye delta control circuit used in every electrical industry involving industrial
process automation control technology.
Electrical Schematic Diagram for the Control Circuit of a Forward Reverse Star (Wye)
Delta Motor Controller

Depending on the choice of the operator, starting the circuit is selected via the forward
or the reverse push button switches. When the forward push button switch is selected,
the command is transferred to the relevant forward function of the circuit which
activates the forward main coil (blue). The relevant auxiliary contacts of the forward
main coil (blue) would then be actuated opposite its normal state, that is, a normally
open contact would eventually switch to a close contact whereas a normally close
contact would switch to an open contact.

The forward main contact (blue) closes to activate the star coil (brown) together
with the timer coil (green), hence placing the motor TERMINAL in the power circuit
connected to a star configuration. After an elapsed time is reached, the timer
contact (green) will release the star coil (brown) and transfers the command to the
forward delta mode as a result of a completed circuit with the closing of the timer
contact (green) along with the awaiting initially closed forward main contact (blue),
thereby permitting power flow to the forward delta coil (dark blue). This final stage
places the motor terminal in the power circuit configured to a delta connection.
Another forward main contact (blue) is connected in parallel across the forward push
button switch to serve as a latching switch that keeps the forward main coil
maintained energized after the operator releases the forward push button switch.

Conversely, when the reverse push button switch is pressed by the operator, all the
related contacts of the reverse main coil (red) is activated which holds the reverse
main coil maintained activated after releasing the reverse push button switch, then
energizes the star coil (brown) and the timer coil (green), then switches to the reverse
delta mode (orange) after the specified time set on the timer expires.

To manually interrupt the circuit, the operator only needs to press the stop push button
switch to deactivate any energized coil in the control circuit to instantaneously isolate
the power source to the motor. Another interrupting contact is the thermal overload
contact (purple) which serves as an automatic shutoff switch that instantaneously
opens the control circuit to shut down the motor when overload current greater than the
rated capacity is detected from the electric motor.

Interlock contacts are also strategically placed on the control circuit as a protective
measure. An auxiliary contact from the star contactor (brown) is connected in series
before the two delta contactor coils to isolate both the forward delta coil and the
reverse delta coil when the star contactor coil is ACTIVE . Likewise, auxiliary contacts
from both the forward and the reverse delta coils are also placed in series before the
star coil to isolate power to the star coil should any one of the two delta coils be active
to ensure the absence of power flow to the star coil when the control circuit is actively
in the delta mode.

Auxiliary contacts from both forward and reverse coils are also placed opposite each
coil so that one cannot activate without the other one deactivated first, meaning, the
normally-closed forward main contact (blue) connected before the reverse main coil
(red) will not permit theACTIVATIONof the reverse main coil (red) while the forward
main coil (blue) is activated, conversely, the normally-closed reverse main contact
(red) connected before the forward main coil (blue) will not also permit the
ACTIVATION of the forward main coil (blue) while the reverse main coil (red) is
activated.
The same condition applies to both the forward and the reverse delta coils. The
opposing interlock contacts placed before the forward and the reverse delta coils also provides protective action by preve
main coil (blue) is active.

To facilitate for a further understanding about the concept of the forward reverse star
delta electric motor control circuit, a flowchart diagram is provided to serve as a
schematic representation of the sequence of operation of the reversible star delta electric motor control circuit.
