Answer / m s kumar
Starting Current is the current taken by an electric
machine at the time of starting. It is typically 5 to 6
times the rated current of the machine. Since torque of an
electric motor is proportional of current (or square of the
current), the starting torque is high or low if the
starting current is high or low respectively.

Answer / pswin
Starting current it the current drawn by the induction motors at the starting period. It is used to choose correct size or ratings of power cable,breaker and starter for that motor.

Answer / kamlesh g patel
starting current of motor is same as inrush current of
transformer.
starting current of motor is about 5-6 times its rated
current & this is due to non availability of back emf
during starting.
motor torque is proportional to the current means high
starting current produces high strting torque which helps
in starting the machine from stndstill condition.
