So, here you can see there is a total of five terminals of the motor. The red, yellow, and blue are connected to
the speed control switch. Rest, two terminals are neutral and ground. The thermal overload relay is connected in
series with the speed control switch. The indicator light is connected across the phase and neutral. So when the
power supply is available, it will glow.

Mixer:
A mixer is a kitchen appliance used to combine, beat, whip, or blend ingredients together. It typically consists of a
motorized base with beaters, whisks, or paddles that rotate to thoroughly mix ingredients. Mixers are commonly
used for tasks such as baking (for mixing cake batter or dough), cooking (for blending sauces or dressings), and
preparing beverages (for mixing drinks or shakes). They come in various types, including hand mixers and stand
mixers, each offering different levels of power and convenience for culinary tasks.
Grinder:
A grinder is a kitchen appliance or tool used to grind, crush, or pulverize ingredients into smaller particles or pow-
ders. It typically consists of a motorized base with sharp blades
or grinding mechanisms that rotate to break down food items. Grinders are commonly used for tasks such as
grinding spices, chopping vegetables, making nut butter, or crushing grains. They come in various types, including
spice grinders, coffee grinders, food processors with grinding attachments, and specialized meat grinders. Grinders
provide convenience and efficiency in food preparation by reducing ingredients to the desired consistency or texture.

Various part and function of mixer & grinder
A mixer/grinder typically consists of several parts and functions:
1 Motor: Powers the appliance and drives the blades.
2 Blades: Grind, mix, and blend ingredients. There can be different types of blades for various functions, like
grinding, chopping, or mixing.
3 Jars: Containers where ingredients are placed for processing. Usually, there are different-sized jars for different
purposes, like grinding spices, making chutneys, or blending smoothies.
4 Lid with Locking Mechanism: Covers the jar securely during operation to prevent spillage.
5 Control Panel: Interface for selecting different speeds, settings, or functions. It may include buttons or knobs
for power, speed, pulse, etc.

6 Speed Settings: Allow the user to adjust the speed of the blades according to the requirement of the recipe.
7 Pulse Function: Provides short bursts of power for precise control over processing.
8 Safety Features: Overload protection, safety lock mechanisms, and non-slip feet ensure safe operation.
9 Cord Storage: Some models have compartments to store the power cord neatly when not in use.
