This method used only a portion (usually one-half, but sometimes two-thirds) of the motor winding, increasing the impedance seen by the power system. It is to be used only for voltage recovery, and must not be left on the start connection for more than 2 to 3 seconds.
What are the applications for a part winding starter?
Part-Winding motor starters (or two-step starters) provide economical reduced cur-rent starting in applications where the supplied power restricts the increments of current drawn from the lines, and a simple method of accelerating loads with low starting torque.

Are part winding starters open or closed transition starters?
As such, a part winding starter provides a two step start, but does not necessarily re- duce the peak current demand. The initial winding is energized during both start and run modes. As such, the Class 8640 starter provides closed tran- sition starting.
