and pumps. supply produces pulsating magnetic field, not the
rotating magnetic field produced three-phase supply.
The cage induction motor has small starting torque and should used
with light loads started with the load disconnected.
Alternatively the load may connected after the motor has been run up
to full speed.c. All a.c.18
