what are the two types of motors that are for a single phase multi-speed applications?
1--- A shaded-pole motor is a type of AC single-phase induction motor and needs a triac speed control to give multi speeds 2----A synchronous electric motor is an AC motor distinguished by a rotor spinning with coils passing magnets at the same rate as the alternating current and resulting magnetic field which drives it.
1-fans,split phase 2-blowers,shaded poles
1) Yes a shaded pole induction motor with a triac control will work in fractional HP applications. Think of range hood blower, etc. 2) A capacitor start induction motor with multiple run windings like a washing machine motor.
