How to make an Electrical Diagram with added Steinmetz Circuit for a Delta 3 phase motor?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on creating an electrical diagram for a Delta 3-phase motor incorporating a Steinmetz circuit to reduce components in an oven production setup. The user has successfully tested the Steinmetz circuit but struggles with representing it in a diagram, particularly transitioning from a star configuration to a delta configuration. They seek guidance on how to accurately depict the wiring and connections in an efficient manner. The user has provided images of their current diagrams and wiring but finds existing resources insufficient for their specific needs. Assistance is requested from anyone experienced in creating Delta diagrams with Steinmetz circuits.

TL;DR Summary
Steinmetz 3 Phase motor wiring Electrical diagram
Hey Hello everyone, I am now doing an internship and one of my task is to research if we can save costs on the ovens they are now producing. They want to reduce the components on the groundbase. I have found a solution of a apply a Steinmetz circuit. I have tested this and it worked all right.

The question I have right now is, at my Diagram, I have the motor in star, but this is the normal condition not with the steinmetz, I want to add the steinmetz circuit to my motor in the diagram but I don't know how to do it, I want to have my motor in delta with the Steinmetz, I know all the wiring how to connect the circuit but I don't know how to put that down in a good and efficient way in my diagram. This is the system that I have right now. Check picture one with the star diagram

and the 2nd picture is all the wiring of my Steinmetz circuit with a capacitor, All the calculations are all right but I don't know how to turn these wiring delta sheet to a electrical diagram. I hope someone has experience in creating diagram with delta. Online I only see diagrams of Star-Delta, but I just need a diagram of Delta with Steinmetz. Probably I am thinking way to difficult but I can't make it work right now. thanks in advance.

All the coils are black and the wiring colour I have added in red. I hope it is understandable. If I need to wire it, it is no problem but to create a diagram I don't have any idea.

Thread 'How might electronics be different if AC voltage was 72V at 45 Hz?'

Hey guys. I have a question related to electricity and alternating current. Say an alien fictional society developed electricity, and settled on a standard like 73V AC current at 46 Hz. How would appliances be designed, and what impact would the lower frequency and voltage have on transformers, wiring, TVs, computers, LEDs, motors, and heating, assuming the laws of physics and technology are the same as on Earth?

Thread 'What happens if shielded cable has a short to the shield?'

While I was rolling out a shielded cable, a though came to my mind - what happens to the current flow in the cable if there came a short between the wire and the shield in both ends of the cable? For simplicity, lets assume a 1-wire copper wire wrapped in an aluminum shield. The wire and the shield has the same cross section area. There are insulating material between them, and in both ends there is a short between them. My first thought, the total resistance of the cable would be reduced...

Thread 'Why does the amperage go real high if there is a low voltage short?'

I used to be an HVAC technician. One time I had a service call in which there was no power to the thermostat. The thermostat did not have power because the fuse in the air handler was blown. The fuse in the air handler was blown because there was a low voltage short. The rubber coating on one of the thermostat wires was chewed off by a rodent. The exposed metal in the thermostat wire was touching the metal cabinet of the air handler. This was a low voltage short. This low voltage...
