Which motor should not be started on no-load?
A
DC Series motor
B
DC Shunt motor
C
Synchronous motor
D

Correct Answer: DC Series motor
No-load speed of the DC motor is very high, it’ll create a dangerous situation and the centrifugal forces will destroy the armature and may harm the personnel. As, flux is inversely proportional to speed, speed will be infinity by calculations.
