Which is a more efficient synchronous motor or an induction motor?
28. Which is a more efficient synchronous motor or an induction motor?
- Synchronous motor
- Induction motor
- Both are the same
- None of the above
Answer
The correct answer is: A) Synchronous motor
Explanation
A synchronous motor is more efficient than an induction motor because a synchronous motor operates under a wide range of power factors, both lagging and leading while an induction motor operates at only a lagging power factor.
