Which single-phase motor has the highest starting torque?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The capacitor-start motor has the highest starting torque among single-phase motors. This is because it uses a capacitor to create two different phases in the motor windings, resulting in a higher starting torque than a split-phase motor or a capacitor-run motor. The universal motor also has high starting torque, but it is not typically considered a single-phase motor as it can operate on both AC and DC power.
