Just something different for you. Somewhat ironic really as electric motors are the very thing that made my beloved stationary engines redundant at the end of their working lives!

Two 5.5KW three phase motors with electronic soft start being wound up, although only running in idle mode. Before electronic soft starts, sometimes large resistor banks were used, or manual resistance starting where by an operator gradually reduced the field resistance with a wall mounted control. Electronic soft starts such as the "trend" controllers are common place these days.
