Power Circuits

Overview

MVS soft starters are designed to operate as part of a system including other components.    A main contactor and 
bypass contactor are required in all installations.    MVS models V02 ~ V07 must be installed with fuses.    MVS model 

V13 must be installed with either contactor and fuses or a circuit breaker.

The following additional components may also be required:

main isolator/ earth switch

power factor correction

line inductors

transient/ overvoltage protection

MV/LV control supply transformer

Main Contactor

The MVS must always be installed with a main contactor.    Select a contactor with an AC3 rating greater than or 

equal to the full load current rating of the connected motor or there is an option for a circuit breaker above 7.2 kV.

The main contactor is associated with terminals L1, L2, L3 on the supply side of the soft starter.    The coil is 

associated with output terminals 13, 14 of the MVS (refer to

Power Circuit Configuration (models V02 ~ V07) on 

page 32).

To ensure that the potentially dangerous medium voltage area is isolated from the low voltage control area, power 

is supplied to the main contactor coil from the control voltage terminal block (refer to 

Internal Wiring –X10 on 

page 36). 

Bypass Contactor

The MVS must always be installed with a bypass contactor.    Select a contactor with an AC1 rating greater than or 

equal to the full load current rating of the connected motor or there is an option for a circuit breaker above 7.2 kV.

The bypass contactor is associated with terminals L1, L2, L3 on the supply side of the soft starter, and bypass 

terminals T1B, T2B, T3B on the motor side.    The coil is associated with output terminals 23, 24, and the auxiliary 

Normally Open contact is associated with input terminals C73, C74 of the soft starter (refer to 

Power Circuit 

Configuration (models V02 ~ V07) on page 32). 

To ensure that the potentially dangerous medium voltage area is isolated from the low voltage control area, power 

is supplied to the bypass relay coil from the control voltage terminal block (refer to 

Internal Wiring –X10 on page 

36).
