Final answer:
In a split phase motor, the run winding is made with thicker insulated conductors with fewer turns, to facilitate the creation of a rotating magnetic field required for motor operation, while also managing resistance and current capacity.
Step-by-step explanation:
In a resistance start, split phase motor the run winding is made with thicker insulated conductors with fewer turns and is mounted in the bottom of the stator slots. The design of these windings is such that they create a rotating magnetic field, which is necessary for the induction motor to operate. The use of thicker wires for the run winding compared to the start winding is due to the lower resistance and higher current carrying capacity required during the continual operation of the motor.
The phenomenon of eddy currents is minimized in the design of the motor's iron core by using laminated insulating sheets, which helps in reducing energy losses due to resistive heating. During operation, the back emf generated by the rotating coil opposes the input emf, which helps in regulating the motor's speed and current draw.
