Which of the following motor will give the highest starting torque ?
Correct answer: B. Schrage motor
- A. D.C. shunt motor
- B. Schrage motor
- C. Repulsion start and induction run motor
- D. Universal motor
Explanation
The Schrage motor has a series-type commutator construction that provides very high starting torque. A DC shunt motor has comparatively low starting torque, while the universal motor is not generally the highest in this comparison.
