  2. Starter solenoid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starter_solenoid

    A starter solenoid is an electromagnet which is actuated to engage the starter motor of an internal combustion engine. It is normally attached directly to the starter motor which it controls. Its primary function is as the actuating coil of a contactor (a relay designed for large electric currents) which connects the battery to the starter ...

  3. Magnetic starter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_starter

    A magnetic starter has a contactor and an overload relay, which will open the control voltage to the starter coil if it detects an overload on a motor. [1] [2] The overload relay opens a set of contacts that are wired in series with the supply to the contactor feeding the motor. The characteristics of the heaters can be matched to the motor so ...

  4. Solenoid (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solenoid_(engineering)

    If a starter solenoid receives insufficient power from the battery, it will fail to start the motor and may produce a rapid, distinctive "clicking" or "clacking" sound. This can be caused by a low or dead battery, by corroded or loose connections to the battery, or by a broken or damaged positive (red) cable from the battery.

    An automobile starter motor (larger cylinder). The smaller object on top is a starter solenoid which controls power to the starter motor and engages the Bendix drive.. A starter (also self-starter, cranking motor, or starter motor) is a device used to rotate (crank) an internal-combustion engine so as to initiate the engine's operation under its own power.

  6. Contact protection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_protection

    Every time the contacts of an electromechanical switch, relay or contactor are opened or closed, there is a certain amount of contact wear. If the contact is cycling without electricity (dry), the impact of the contact electrodes a slightly deformed by the resulting cold forging. [1]
