Concept:
Split Phase Induction Motor:
- The Split Phase Motor is also known as a Resistance Start Motor. It has a single cage rotor, and its stator has two windings known as main winding and starting winding.
- Both the windings are displaced 90 degrees in space.
- The main winding has very low resistance and a high inductive reactance whereas the starting winding has high resistance and low inductive reactance.
- A resistor is connected in series with the auxiliary winding. The current in the two windings is not equal as a result the rotating field is not uniform.
- Hence, the starting torque is small, of the order of 1.5 to 2 times of the start, running torque. At the start of the motor both the windings are connected in parallel.
