    The document discusses two-wire motor controls which use two wires to connect control devices like switches or relays in series with the motor starter coil. When power is lost or dips below a set level, the starter drops out providing low voltage release, and will pick back up automatically when power is restored. Two-wire control circuits are commonly used in remote or inaccessible installations where equipment returns to service immediately after power is restored.

    Motor Control-2 Wire

    By: Saheed Reid and Jayden Gordon


    What are motor controls?
    Motor controls are the use of appropriate starters and associated
    control devices, Such as limit switches, pressure switches, timing
    relays, wired in such a way that the motor operates in specific ways
    under the set conditions.

    the controller can range from something simple to something very


    complex however the common function of all controllers is to control
    the operation of an electric motor.
    What are motor controls cont’d
    Control circuits can be designed to function manually or
    automatically. A manual circuit requiring the a person to initiate the
    action for the circuit to operate. For an automatic control circuit
    responds to changes in the systems and reacts accordingly without
    human interference.

    Many machines and industrial processes work with an automatic


    control circuit. Control Circuits are often referred to by the amount of
    conductors used in the control circuit, they’re 2 types of control
    circuits; two-wire and three-wire control circuits.
    Two-wire control circuit
    Two-wire control circuit cont’d
    Also known as low voltage release, it is called as such because it only requires 2
    wires to connect the control device to starting coil. It is connected in series with
    the starting coil using a maintained contact control device, the control device used
    may be the following: a toggle switch, pressure switch, float switch, limit switch or
    a thermostat.

    When a starter is required to function automatically without the attention of an


    operator this scheme is used. In the case of a power failure or the supply voltage
    dips below a set level, while the control contacts are closed the starter will drop
    out(low voltage release). The starter will pick up back automatically on power
    restoration.
    Uses & Sources
    Two-wire control circuits are typically used in remote of inaccessible
    installations where as soon as power is restored equipment is immediately
    return to service. However note that while the two-wire control scheme
    provides low voltage release, the operator is not protected in the case the
    machine is re-energized suddenly.
