A choke coil is simply a coil having a large inductance, but a small resistance. A device that can regulate the current in an A.C. circuit without much loss of energy is called as ‘choke coil’.
While estimating the overhead lines, the first and last pole is always earth connected and after every 3rd electrical pole, the fourth pole is earthed. Therefore, the approximate number of required ground set = 4
We use universal motors in mixer grinders. Universal motors can run both on a.c. and d.c. The universal motor works on the same principle that DC series motor works. DC series motor has the characteristics of operating at high-speed when there is no load and operating at low-speed when the load is applied. It has high starting torque characteristics. So it is used in mixers, where initially we put some load at starting.
