    Technical Information when Starting Electric Pump Motor

    Hello All, I am new to the forum and joined to see if I can learn more about calculating Technical Data when Starting Electric Motors on Water Pump systems. Have been exposed to various Starting methods including DOL (generally LRC is 6x times FLC) and VSD / Soft Starters (Changing Frequency/...
