In split phase motor main winding is of _____________?
Correct answer: C. thick wire placed at the bottom of the slots
- A. thin wire placed at the top of the slots
- B. thin wire placed at the bottom of the slots
- C. thick wire placed at the bottom of the slots
- D. thick wire placed at the top of the" slots
Explanation
The main winding carries the running current, so it uses comparatively thick wire and is placed at the bottom of the slots. The auxiliary winding uses thinner wire and is placed above it to obtain the required phase displacement.
