Automatic protection usually contains a temperature-sensing device in the stator coil windings that ____ the power supply if the internal temperature of the motor becomes too high due to failure to start or overload.

A) disconnects
B) engages
C) turns on
D) starts

Temperature-sensing Device

A device used to detect and measure temperature changes, often used for control or safety purposes.

Stator Coil Windings

Coils of wire wound around the stationary part of an electric motor or generator, which generate magnetic fields when electric current flows through them.

Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
Automatic protection is designed to disconnect the power supply to the motor if its internal temperature becomes too high. This prevents damage to the motor or other equipment and reduces the risk of fire or other hazards.
