For driving high inertia loads best type of induction motor suggested is_____________?
Correct answer: A. slip ring type
- A. slip ring type
- B. squirrel cage type
- C. any of the above
- D. none of the above
Explanation
A slip-ring induction motor is preferred for high-inertia loads because external rotor resistance provides high starting torque with controlled starting current. A squirrel-cage motor generally has poorer starting performance for this duty.
