1.	Single phase reluctance motors are extensively used in ________(a) grinder applications(b) driving electric clocks and other timing devices(c) welding applications(d) lifts/ elevatorsI got this question in a job interview.This question is from Reluctance Motor in section Basic Concepts in Rotating Machines of Electrical Machines
Answer» Right option is (B) DRIVING electric clocks and other timing devices The best I can explain: The single phase reluctance motors operate at CONSTANT synchronous speed, in case the supply frequency remains constant, and hence timing devices MOSTLY USE these motors.
