🔍 Key Concepts

• Refrigeration compressor control and duty cycle • Effects of rapid on/off operation on machinery • Difference between electrical faults and normal control actions

💭 Think About

• Think about what a thermostat or pressure switch makes the compressor do when the desired temperature or pressure is reached and then quickly exceeded again. • Which option describes a pattern of operation over time, rather than a speed or an electrical failure? • Consider which behavior would be harmful to motor windings and starter contacts because it happens many times in a short period.

✅ Before You Answer

• Does the option describe starting and stopping behavior over short intervals, not speed? • Is the option about normal but undesirable operating pattern, not a wiring fault like a ground? • Does the description match what engineers warn about when they say a compressor is "short-cycling"?
