Softstarter "inside delta" connection. Why only for some kind of softstarters ?
Electrical topic:
I am pondering which softstarter for a relatively large motor.
Maybe I can install the softstarter inside the delta as opposed to in the line. This reduces the current by a factor 0.58.
However, on page 46 in this handbook it says that only few softstarters can be connected inside the delta, but does not describe the reason.

And if I check some Siemens softstarters, the series 3RW30 and 3RW40 the inside delta connection is not mentioned.
For the 3RW44 series the inside delta connection is mentioned.
Anyone knows why some softstarters can be used inside the delta, and some not ?
