Thanks for getting back to me
I totally understand that the windings are what will overheat, and I understand they will overheat because they are drawing extra current due to the drop in voltage. What I don't understand is how they draw this additional current. Motors don't typically have...
I used to think this question would be a simple question, but I haven't been able to get a good explanation from anyone (including two electrical engineers). So, here goes
During a brownout (periods where a building does not receive it's normal level of voltage) motors can potentially...
