🔍 Key Concepts

• Identify whether figure "A" shows any capacitor connected to the auxiliary (start) winding • Recall how a plain split-phase (resistance-start) induction motor behaves at start compared with a capacitor-start or capacitor-run motor • Think about when power factor correction is provided in this motor family and what component is used to do it

💭 Think About

• From the diagram, decide if this motor has only a main and auxiliary winding with a centrifugal switch, or if there is also a capacitor in series with the auxiliary winding • Compare the starting torque of a basic split-phase (resistance-start) motor to that of capacitor-start motors: is it considered relatively high or relatively low within the split-phase family? • Ask yourself: without a capacitor in the circuit, would this motor be able to correct its power factor?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify whether any capacitor symbol appears in figure "A"; if none appears, that eliminates the choices mentioning power factor correction • Confirm that power factor correction in single-phase motors is normally associated with a run or start/run capacitor, not just a plain auxiliary winding • Recall that the simplest split-phase design (no capacitor, just start winding and switch) has weaker starting torque than capacitor-start types; use that to choose between the remaining options
