5.7 Necessity of D.C. Motor Starter At starting, when the motor is stationary, there is no back e.m.f. in the armature. Consequently, if the motor is directly switched on to the mains, the armature will draw a heavy current (Ia = V/Ra) because of small armature resistance. As an example, 5 H.P., 220 V shunt motor has a full-load current of 20 A and an armature resistance of about 0.5 . If this motor is directly switched on to supply, it would take an armature current of 220/0.5 = 440 A which
