Definitions:

Phase

A measure of the position of a point in time on a waveform cycle, often used in the context of alternating currents to describe the difference in timing between two waveforms.

Consequent-pole Motor

A type of electric motor design that uses additional poles (generated by connections in the winding) to improve torque and reduce pulsations in multi-phase systems.

Running Torque

The torque a motor produces at its rated speed and voltage, crucial for understanding the operational efficiency of the motor.

High

This term is relative and could refer to a level of voltage, resistance, frequency, etc., that is above what is considered normal or average.
