A double squirrel-cage induction motor has______________?
Correct answer: C. two parallel windings in rotor
- A. two rotors moving in oppsite direction
- B. two parallel windings in stator
- C. two parallel windings in rotor
- D. two series windings in stator
Explanation
A double squirrel-cage rotor contains two cages, or two rotor windings, placed one inside the other. The outer cage gives high starting resistance, while the inner cage provides better running efficiency.
