I’ve asked Lenny to set up a new sticky thread for motors and their control. I hope others will help with diagrams and theories for the benefit of others.

Before I start on this I want to know who would be interested in motor bearings.
Glennispark is willing to help on this subject, between us I think we’ve well over 60 years of experience to hand, hopefully others will add to the pool.
Please say Yay or Ney as it does take time to do drawings to make things clear.

Primary resistance starter
I’ve only ever seen two of these, they were used on lift motors.
As you can see from the drawing they are pretty simple. On start up contactor K2 closes allowing a reduced voltage to the stator windings, after a short time delay contactor K1 closes and K2 drops out.
They suffer from being limited to X number of starts per hour due to heat build up.
