Starter – operating principle A starter is a device used to start an internal combustion engine. Electric starters are the most common. An electric starter is a direct current motor used to rotate the engine crankshaft and provide a proper rotational speed so as to initiate the engine's operation under its own power. Internal combustion engine starters require the greatest amount of electricity from the battery, however only for a short period while starting the engine. An electric starter is necessary as internal combustion engines are unable to start on their own. Therefore, the starter has to rotate the crankshaft several times in order to enable it to start. Born in 1876 in Loundonville, USA, Karol Franklin Kettering was the inventor of the electric starter which replaced the hand crank starter.
