In a split phase motor, the running winding should have?
Correct answer: B. low resistance and high inductance
- A. high resistance and low inductance
- B. low resistance and high inductance
- C. high resistance as well as high inductance
- D. low resistance as well as low inductiance
Explanation
The running winding is designed with low resistance and relatively high inductance, giving it a better power factor during normal operation. The starting winding, in contrast, has higher resistance to create the required phase difference.
