Question 319Electricity/Electronics - QMED70% to pass
Referring to figure "B" of the illustrated control circuit schematic diagram, which of the following statements is true when the motor is running in the forward direction? Illustration EL-0011

AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) The normally open (NO) "F" contacts are closed.
When the motor is running in the forward direction, the normally open "F" contacts will be closed, allowing current to flow through the forward circuit. This is the expected behavior for a motor control circuit, where the "F" (forward) contacts are energized to run the motor in the forward direction.
The other answer choices are incorrect because: B) The normally closed (NC) "F" contacts would be open, not closed, when running in the forward direction. C) The normally closed (NC) "R" contacts would be closed, not open, when running in the forward direction. D) The normally open (NO) "R" contacts would be open, not closed, when running in the forward direction.
