How PSC Motors Work:

To use a single-phase power supply available in residential homes to drive a motor, there is a need for a mechanism to start the motor rotating. A PSC motor does this by having separate main and secondary windings with the main winding connected directly to the power supply and the secondary windings connected via a capacitor.
