ABSTRACT:
A starting control circuit is provided for use with a mechanical duty single phase alternating current motor having a start winding and a main or run winding. Both the main and start windings are electrically connected to the alternating current source during the initial starting of the motor. Transducers detect the current phase of both the start and main winding and comparators then compare these current phases together. A comparator generates a pulsed output signal when the phase of the start winding lags the phase of the main winding and this pulsed output signal has a pulse width proportional to the magnitude of the phase lag between the start and main windings. These pulsed output signals are integrated and a electronic switch is activated to disconnect the start winding from the power source whenever the integrated pulsed output signals exceed a predetermined value.
