Why starters are required in a DC motor? Correct Answer To restrict armature current as there is no back emf at starting

At the time of starting (n=0), the induced emf of a motor is zero such that current drawn by armature, from rated voltage supply would be Ia= V/Ra. Since armature resistance is very low, armature current drawn is very high and will damage the machine.
