I just want a simple start and stop of a large 10 hp AC electric motor, and possibly some feedback that it is running. I've attached the wiring diagram of the current switch box. I've was thinking i'd be able to use a relay where the start and stop buttons are currently. But i'm not sure how big of …

What you have here is a 3 phase motor starter, using 2 phases to start the motor and one phase as a current seal in. I don't know what size starter it is. If it is a smaller starter, a 10 amp relay should hold the coil in. Up to a NEMA Size 4 contactor at 230VAC it should take less than 5 amps (inr…

The circuit ringed is not a 3-phase anything.

MarkT: The circuit ringed is not a 3-phase anything. Nope, but the starter shown is a three phase starter wired for single phase use.

nathancamp: Nope, but the starter shown is a three phase starter wired for single phase use. Not if it has thermal overloads built into the contactor. If the overload trip is part of the contactor arrangement then it is essential that all three contact sets carries the load current otherwise the…

jackrae: Not if it has thermal overloads built into the contactor. If the overload trip is part of the contactor arrangement then it is essential that all three contact sets carries the load current otherwise the device will trip on what it "thinks" is the loss of a phase. I looked at the schema…

I wouldn't trust a large expensive installation like that to those cheap "toy" relays. Do you have a link or part nr for that starter? If its all built into a "block" with inaccessible internal connections, it may be a problem, can you post some pictures? Also if the remote station is not within si…

I agree on using quality components, but i have no idea what quality is.... Here are some pics that should help put the rest in perspective. [IMG_20160801_191335845.jpg] [IMG_20160801_191406306.jpg] [IMG_20160801_192353779.jpg] [IMG_20160801_192413946.jpg]
