Motors can frequently require a large amount of energy when they accelerate up to full speed. A soft starter is used to reduce the inrush currents, useful if you want to protect your equipment, extend the life of your motor, and reduce motor heating with frequent starts and stops.
So, a soft starter provides a gentle acceleration up to full speed and they are used for controlled starting and stopping.
