Abstract

The electrical system plays an essential role in maintaining shrimp farm operations, particularly for managing water circulation and quality. General Background Shrimp aquaculture relies heavily on continuous water pump operation, which demands reliable power distribution and strict energy management. Specific Background High starting currents in three-phase induction motors frequently cause voltage drops, power losses, and accelerated wear on electrical equipment. Knowledge Gap Existing studies require deeper technical insights into the practical wiring configuration and operational performance of star-delta starting panels in aquaculture settings. Aims This study aims to analyze the implementation of a star-delta panel by PT. XYZ to improve water pump efficiency and reliability in shrimp farms. Results Findings indicate that the star-delta configuration effectively reduces motor starting current, minimizes energy waste, and extends the operational lifespan of electrical equipment. Novelty This work provides a comprehensive evaluation of integrated power and control wiring structures for industrial star-delta starters applied directly in aquaculture systems. Implications Implementing this method enhances electrical stability, lowers operational risks, and supports sustainable aquaculture management. Key Findings Highlights Star-delta panels successfully reduce initial starting currents of three phase induction motors by thirty to forty percent compared to direct online methods. Proper separation of power and control wiring structures ensures safe operation and reliable automatic switching timing. Lower starting currents minimize thermal and mechanical stress, thereby extending the service life of pump motors and electrical components. Keywords Star-delta panel, Induction motor, Water pump, Shrimp pond, Energy efficiency
