Electrical Motors
(OP)
As a recently graduated electronics engineer, I know almost nothing about motors (DOL, DOL reversing, star-delta, inverting, etc), but would like to.
Are there any web sites or recommended reading that is strictly for beginners? I have tried numerous searches, but almost all sites assume a more fundamental knowledge than I have.
Can anyone explain the types I listed above in laypersons terms?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Some of the major motor manufacturers: Lincoln, Baldor, Leeson, Reliance, ABB, WEG, GE. One of them is bound to have literature on thier web sites.

RE: Electrical Motors
Try www.lmphotonics.com
That site contains a great overview of the different starting methods presently available (those you mention plus soft starters and variable speed drives) and much other practical & useful information.
