In order to reverse the direction of rotation of a capacitor start motor while it is running

  1. Disconnect motor from supply and immediately reconnect it to supply with reversed connections of the main winding
  2. Disconnect motor from the supply till it stops then reconnect it to supply with reversed connection of main or auxiliary winding
  3. Reverse the direction of connection of the auxiliary winding and after motor comes to rest then connect auxiliary winding to the supply
  4. Reverse the direction of connections of the auxiliary winding and immediately connect it to supply

Correct answer: 2. Disconnect motor from the supply till it stops then reconnect it to supply with reversed connection of main or auxiliary winding”
