People Electric · Motor Starting Autotransformer
Product overview
People Electric QZB autotransformers reduce the starting voltage and current of compatible three-phase squirrel-cage induction motors during infrequent starting. The primary and secondary share one winding, so this is not an isolating transformer or a continuous-duty distribution transformer. Confirm the motor power, starting load, tap connections and duty with the quotation.

This page is restricted to four non-K QZB models with consistent model units and dimensions. The K-suffix definition and several K-model units differ between source editions, so no K variant is offered here. Original photos are manufacturer series illustrations. Starting time, restart intervals, protection and reduced-voltage taps must be confirmed for the actual motor and load.
Typical applications
- Reduced-voltage infrequent starting of compatible three-phase squirrel-cage induction motors.
