stator windings

Single-phase ____ motors operate on the principle of a rotating magnetic field developed by a shaded-pole stator. Although they will operate at synchronous speed, they do not require DC excitation current.

true

In a capacitor-start capacitor-run motor, a capacitor is connected in series with the winding to provide a continuous leading current in the start winding.

true
