Wiring set circle in motion (9)

I believe the answer is:

electrics

'wiring' is the definition.

'set circle in motion' is the wordplay.
'in motion' indicates anagramming the letters (I've seen this in other clues).
'set'+'circle'='setcircle'
'setcircle' is an anagram of 'ELECTRICS'.

(Another definition for electrics that I've seen is " circuits".)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
