- A resistance-start motor is a type of single-phase motor, and the split-phase motor is specifically known as a resistance-start motor.
- In split-phase motors, a starting winding with a higher resistance is connected in series with a centrifugal switch.
- This arrangement provides the necessary phase shift for starting the motor and then disconnects the starting winding once the motor reaches a certain speed, ensuring efficient operation.
