The efficiency of these motors must behigh at overloads, in order that the starting currentsshall not be excessive. It must be high at light loads, asa motor is required to run most of the time at from one-quarter to one-third of its rated capacity. On roadsw^ith many grades or where continuous heavy traffic isfound the efficiency must be uniformly high, in orderthat the minimum amount of current will be the great variations in the co
