The General Electric Companys hand starter differs slightly from the type Just de-scribed. A complete diagram is shown in Fig. 72 where the starter is connected to a simpleshunt wound motor. It is to be noted in this diagram that the release magnet M is shuntedacross the D. C. line, and has a coil of fixed resistance R-1 connected in series. In allother respects, the wiring is the same as the first type and the starter performs the same no VOLT n. ARMATURE Fig. 73—Circuit of Automatic Starter for Marconi Yi K.

Automatic Motor Starters.—It is often essential to install a motorgenerator at a point remote from the wireless cabin in order that the noisefrom its operation may not interfere with the reception of wireless signals. Ininstances of this kind automatic motor starters are employed, which are con-trolled from a distant point by pressing a small button or closing a small starters possess the advantage that the acceleration of the- starting handle isuniform, and there is, therefore, no danger of burning out the armature or melt-ing the fuses during the starting of a motor. 110 VOLT ,_J7WW\AAa1 J \ J
