Why a starter is used for a motor?

Answer Posted / sriram sarma

Starter is used for a motor to limit the high starting
current. During starting of a dc motor high current of upto
4-5 times the full load current occurs which is avoided by
use of high resistance slowly cut out of the circuit.

Hello everyone, somebody knows what is a "surplice power" ? The hole phrase is: "This rating is appropriate for a generator set paralleled with an infinite bus e.g. a national electrical supply network or grid where the generator set is run at 100% load, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year and any surplice power is exported into the grid" Thanks in advance.
