Wye-Delta Starter Kits
Wye-Delta Starter Kits have been designed to aid in the field
assembly of open-transition Wye-Delta starters using Bulletin
100 Contactors. These kits include power wiring, shorting straps,
mechanical interlocks, incoming terminal blocks, and the
necessary mounting plate. Assembling a complete Wye-Delta
starter requires the use of the following additional components:
• Contactors
• Overload Relay
• On-Delay Timer:
For 199-YD7 and 199-YD8, use Bulletin 700-CF Control
Relay with Cat. No. 196-FPTA30
Cat. No. 199-YD7
or
Use Cat. No. 700-FSD45G⊗ Electronic Timing Relay

Lighting Loads
Typical Electric Discharge Loads
Mercury vapor, sodium vapor, metal halogen and fluorescent lamps.
Compensated Loads
Loads that use a power factor correction capacitor to improve the power factor of the load. These loads typically exhibit an inrush
current of 15 to 20 times the continuous current of the load.
Selection Information
To select a contactor for controlling a lighting load, use the following procedure:
1. Determine the type of load to be controlled. For example — is it an incandescent type load or an electric discharge type;
compensated or non-compensated type?
2. Determine the continuous current of the lighting load.
3. Select a contactor that has a current rating greater than or equal to the continuous rating of the load that is being switched.

Switching DC Loads
Use the following tables as a guideline for selecting the proper Bulletin 100 contactor for switching DC loads. Notice that these
guidelines are only for three power poles wired in series. Note: L/R in the tables below is equal to the ratio of inductance to resistance
in the circuit being switched and is measured in milliseconds. The higher this ratio or time constant the more stored energy the
circuit contains.
