In a manual shunt motor starter?
Correct answer: A. over load relay is connected in series and no volt relay in parallel with the load
- A. over load relay is connected in series and no volt relay in parallel with the load
- B. over load relay is connected in parallel and no volt relay in series with the load
- C. over load relay and no volt relay are both connected in series with the load
- D. over load relay and no volt relay are both connected in parallel with the load
Explanation
The overload relay is placed in series with the motor circuit so excessive current trips it, while the no-volt release coil is connected in parallel with the shunt field or supply. This allows it to release the starter when supply voltage fails.
