In a ceilingfan employing capacitor run motor____________?
Correct answer: A. secondary winding surrounds the primary winding
- A. secondary winding surrounds the primary winding
- B. primary winding surrounds the secondary winding
- C. both are usual arrangements
- D. none of the above
Explanation
In the usual ceiling-fan capacitor-run motor arrangement, the auxiliary or secondary winding is placed around the main or primary winding. This arrangement helps provide the required phase-shifted magnetic field for starting and running.
