Q.	A three-point starter is used for
A.	shunt motors
B.	shunt as well as compound motors
C.	shunt, compound and series motors
D.	not for dc motors
Answer» B. shunt as well as compound motors
Explanation: 3-point starters are used only for shunt and compound motors, they are not used for series motors. three-point starter is employed where motor field current can be varied in a narrow range and so does the motor speed.
