The starting winding of a single-phase motor is placed in_________?
Correct answer: D. stator
- A. armature
- B. field
- C. rotor
- D. stator
Explanation
In a single-phase induction motor, the starting winding is an auxiliary stator winding placed 90 electrical degrees from the main winding. Its phase difference helps produce starting torque.
