- This motor consists of a main winding and auxiliary winding. The main winding and auxiliary winding are displaced in space by 90°.
- The auxiliary winding is used to produce the starting torque, which makes the motor rotate.
- The starting current of the split-phase induction motor is very low. The torque developed by the split phase motor at starting is about 1.5 times the rated torque.
- When the motor reaches 75% of the rated speed, the centrifugal switch disconnects the auxiliary winding from the motor.
- The common applications of split phase induction motors are in fans, washing machines, blowers, mixer & grinders, machine tools, etc.
