Which of the following are the advantages of universal Motor?

Right Answer is:

Both 1 & 2

SOLUTION

The advantages of the universal motor

  • High starting torque.
  • The no-load speed is very high, but not high enough to break apart.
  • It has poor speed regulation when the load to which it is connected changes. To minimize the effect of the load, most universal motors are designed to overcome this by operating at a very high speed of 3500 RPM or greater. In a router application, for example, the universal motor runs at 18,000 RPM.
