Question

A 0.3 kW split-phase motor draws its starting winding current of 3 A lagging the supply voltage by 15 elec and its running winding current is 5 A lagging the supply voltage by 40 elec. The component of current of running winding that lags the supply voltage by 90 will be _______A.

  1. 3.21

Open in App
Solution

The correct option is A 3.21
Starting winding current Is=315° A=(2.9j0.78)A

Running winding current Im=540° A=(3.83j3.21)A

The components of running winding current that lags behind the supply voltage by 90
= Reactive component of running winding current

=3.21 A
