Household ceiling Fan(Type:Single phase Induction Motor) Connection.

Generally Single phase induction motor of capacitor split type is widely used in household ceiling fans, many of us have doubt how to connect it to drive and feel comfortable beside it.Here is the solution grab it

These type of motors consists of two winding 
  • Starting winding(Winding with less number of turns and thin in size)
  • Running winding(Winding with high number of turns and thick in cross section size)
Components need are
  1. Condenser of 2.5 micro farad 440/230 vAc.
  2. 230V,50Hz AC mains

Circuits diagram above illustrates the connection of that wiring

  •  From motor 4 or 3 wires will come out,Check that using Multimeter by seeing continuity test.
  • If 3 is out ,one with thick wire is one end of running winding another with thin wire is one end of starting winding,internally both another ends are shorted and neutral is taken.
  • Connect the condenser in series with Running winding,theoretically which is going to split the phase to produce rotating magnetic field. 
  • Connect the Circuit to 230V AC mains Safely, And operate it.
  • Good luck.
