An induction motor is one of type of AC motor that is supplied by means of electromagnetic induction. This motor has some advantages like has high efficiency and can be used for lower full-load currents. However, this motor is expensive … Continue reading →

A permanent split capacitor (PSC) motor has a run type capacitor. This capacitor is permanently connected in series with the start winding. This will cause the start winding an auxiliary winding once the motor reached the running speed. It cannot … Continue reading →

Modified split-phase motor with a capacitor in series with the start winding to provide a start “boost” is shown below. The capacitor start motor also has a centrifugal switch like the split-phase motor which disconnects the start winding and the … Continue reading →
