Introduction: Bypassing Siemens Direct-on-line-starter

We have all seen this big bad box, which forces us to get up and manually switch on appliances each time there is a power cut.

A simple hack to bypass this is tape the spring method but that method is inefficient as the tape loosens over time and you need to reapply.

So today I am going to teach you how to short and bypass this box once and for all.

Materials required :

  • Wire (preferably thick or a bunch of them together)
  • scissors
  • Screw driver

Step 1: Connections

Open the box with a screwdriver to look inside and with a wire or more do the connections as shown in the figures.

You can unscrew the screws near the wire to force the wires into a notch and then tighten them back so as to assure a tight connection.

Step 2: How the Shorted Circuit Looks

Finally we have a shorted connection which forces the box into auto on.

Hope it helps.
