These reversing IEC motor starters with electronic overloads invert current flow to allow motors to operate in forward and reverse directions. Electronic overload relays trigger motor starters to break electrical connections with downstream equipment once the current reaches a pre-determined range of full-load amperage. They have adjustable current settings and use semiconductors to monitor for overload conditions and trip once the current exceeds that set point. Electronic overload relays turn circuits on and off faster, are more accurate, and have longer service lives than thermal overload relays.
