Wye Delta Starter
92
The presence of these resistors in a closed transition starter smoothes the transition from Wye to Delta operation mode. A typical
closed transition Wye-Delta starter schematic is shown in the following figure

2M Confirm
For the Wye-Delta starter mode to operate properly, one output relay needs to be programmed to the RUN output function and
another output relay needs to be programmed to the UTS output function.
For operation of the Wye-Delta and its transitions from a start to a completed run, refer to Section 8.5, Wye-Delta Operation.
The closed transition resistors generally are sized to be in the circuit for a short period of time. To protect the resistors from over
heating, one input should be programmed as a Bypass/2M contact feedback input and the Bypass/2M confirm parameter must be set.
