In single-phase motors such as the resistance start induction-run motor, the start winding is disconnected by the _____.

A) centrifugal switch
B) disconnect switch
C) operator
D) overload switch

Resistance Start Induction-run Motor

A type of single-phase induction motor that uses an external resistor to increase starting torque, which is removed once the motor reaches a certain speed.

Start Winding

The winding of a split-phase motor that is connected out of phase with the run winding to produce a rotating magnetic field.

Centrifugal Switch

A switch sensitive to the speed of rotation, generally used to disconnect the start windings of a split-phase motor.

  • Familiarize with the operational mechanics and the various categories of single-phase motors.

Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
The start winding in a resistance start induction-run motor is disconnected by a centrifugal switch, which operates based on the motor reaching a certain speed.
