In this project video I will show you why my new autotransformer keeps tripping my circuit breaker and how I built an AC softstarter in order to "softly" start the transformer so that it does not trip my circuit breaker. Along the way we will find out how exactly this problem gets created and how you can fix it easily. BTW, such softstarters are also useful for motors ;-) Let's get started!
