Friend ordered a screw compressor with a single phase 7.5 hp motor. When he starts it it dims the lights to his whole acreage. He is 60 ft from the pole so voltage drop is not an issue. What could he do to get a softer start. When I have had this problem with piston compressor’s, I have put a small buffer tank between the compressor head and tank. This allows the motor to get up to speed with less of a load. Would this work on a screw??
