The shaded pole motor is used for__________?
Correct answer: B. low starting torque
- A. high starting torque
- B. low starting torque
- C. medium starting torque
- D. very high starting torque
Explanation
A shaded-pole motor develops only a weak rotating magnetic field because the shaded coil produces a small delayed flux. Consequently, it has low starting torque and is used for small fans, toys, and similar loads.
