A centrifugal switch in a single-phase motor is used to disconnect the starting winding from the circuit once the motor reaches a certain speed. This prevents overheating and damage to the motor during operation.

Synchronous motors operate at a constant speed determined by the frequency of the AC power supply and the number of poles in the motor. Asynchronous motors, also known as induction motors, operate at speeds slightly below synchronous speed and are widely used in various applications due to their simplicity and reliability.
