SUMMARY

This discussion focuses on creating an electrical diagram incorporating a Steinmetz circuit for a Delta configuration of a three-phase motor. The user, Luc, has successfully tested the Steinmetz circuit but struggles to represent it accurately in a diagram. He seeks guidance on how to transition from a star configuration to a Delta configuration while integrating the Steinmetz circuit, emphasizing the need for a clear and efficient diagrammatic representation.

PREREQUISITES

Understanding of three-phase motor configurations (Delta and Star)
Knowledge of Steinmetz circuit principles and applications
Familiarity with electrical diagramming tools and standards
Basic electrical wiring and circuit analysis skills

NEXT STEPS

Research how to create electrical diagrams using software like AutoCAD Electrical
Learn about Delta configuration wiring and its advantages over Star configuration
Explore resources on integrating Steinmetz circuits into electrical diagrams
Study examples of Delta diagrams specifically for three-phase motors

USEFUL FOR

Electrical engineers, interns in electrical design, and anyone involved in motor control systems who needs to create or understand electrical diagrams for three-phase motors.

TL;DR: Steinmetz 3 Phase motor wiring Electrical diagram

Hey Hello everyone, I am now doing an internship and one of my task is to research if we can save costs on the ovens they are now producing. They want to reduce the components on the groundbase. I have found a solution of a apply a Steinmetz circuit. I have tested this and it worked all right.

The question I have right now is, at my Diagram, I have the motor in star, but this is the normal condition not with the steinmetz, I want to add the steinmetz circuit to my motor in the diagram but I don't know how to do it, I want to have my motor in delta with the Steinmetz, I know all the wiring how to connect the circuit but I don't know how to put that down in a good and efficient way in my diagram. This is the system that I have right now. Check picture one with the star diagram

and the 2nd picture is all the wiring of my Steinmetz circuit with a capacitor, All the calculations are all right but I don't know how to turn these wiring delta sheet to a electrical diagram. I hope someone has experience in creating diagram with delta. Online I only see diagrams of Star-Delta, but I just need a diagram of Delta with Steinmetz. Probably I am thinking way to difficult but I can't make it work right now. thanks in advance.

All the coils are black and the wiring colour I have added in red. I hope it is understandable. If I need to wire it, it is no problem but to create a diagram I don't have any idea.
