Question 539Electricity & Electronics - Assistant Engineer
70% to passWhat type of electrical diagram for the autotransformer type motor controller is shown in the illustration? Illustration EL-0012

The correct answer is D) The diagram is a ladder or line diagram (schematic). The illustration EL-0012 shows a schematic or ladder diagram for an autotransformer type motor controller. This type of diagram is commonly used to depict the electrical connections and circuit components in a motor control system. A ladder diagram uses a series of horizontal "rungs" to represent the various electrical connections, which is an intuitive way to visualize the circuit's operation. The other options are incorrect because a wiring diagram shows the physical layout and connections of the components, a block diagram uses functional blocks to represent the system, and a one-line diagram provides a simplified, high-level view of the electrical system.
