To stop a three-phase motor dead ('plugging'), rather than allowing it to slow to a stop, the motor controller interchanges two of the three lines -which applies a reverse torque to the machine. But before the motor then gets a chance to reverse direction, the centrifugal switch trips the starter and removes the supply.

The centrifugal switch that you refer to and can see in an open frame motor, is used to open the start winding of small HP single phase motors. Once the motor gets up to a certain RPM, the switch opens and the motor continues to operate on its run winding. When the motor stops, the switch goes back to its normally closed position in the start winding and awaits the next start operation.
No, not all single-phase induction motors use a centrifugal switch. For those that do, it's usual function is to disconnect the auxiliary (start) winding once the motor is up to speed (the auxiliary winding is only needed to start the motor in the desired direction, although some motors leave the auxiliary winding permanently connected).
No, rotary switches are usually found on radio sets.
The centrifugal switch in single phase induction motors is used to take the start winding out of the circuit after the motor reaches a certain RPM.
A centrifugal switch, once the motor reaches near run speed, centrifugal force causes a set of contacts to open and disconnect the start capacitors. Some larger motors use a contactor which is disconnected by the centrifugal switch.
In a single phase electric motor, the centrifugal switch allows the start winding to be energized through the start capacitor when the motor is starting. This gives an out of phase magnetic field that, along with the in phase magnetic field from the run winding, helps the rotor to begin spinning. Once the rotor reaches a certain speed, the centrifugal switch changes state and cuts off the start winding. At that point, the motor continues running only through its run winding, and inertia keeps the rotor properly phase biased relative to the run winding's magnetic field.
Someone that is looking to find information about induction motors can do so at the HappyWoodWorking website. There one can find a variety of information such as wiring a power switch, changing voltage or rotation and much more.
The main parts are the stator and the rotor.After that depends on the type of single phase motor. This includes capacitors (start and/or run),centrifugal switch (stationary and rotary) Also there are usually two windings,a start and a run winding. In its most basic form the start and run winding are connected together at one end of the windings (common) the other end of the run winding connected via a centrifugal switch and/or run capacitor to the other end of the start winding. Power is supplies to the run winding terminals. The start capacitor is fitted in series with the centrifugal switch, allowing it to be disconnected once rotation speed is reached.
Changing motor rotationA split phase induction motor has two sets of coils and a centrifugal start switch. The start winding is in series with the start switch. The start winding provides a rotating magnetic field in one direction enabling the motor to start. The motor can be reversed by reversing the connections of either the start winding or the run winding but not both.

Phase to Phase, Neutral to Neutral, Earth to Earth. If its a new motor it should have the wiring for a capacitor and centrifugal switch done internally. Otherwise run a wire from the phase, through the centrifugal switch, into capacitor, into start winding, and back to neutral. So many different kind of single phase 240v motors though, cap start, cap start cap run etc all involving different wiring
The centrifugal switch on a motor's start winding should open at 75 to 80 percent of the motors run speed RPM.
Changing motor rotationA split phase induction motor has two sets of coils and a centrifugal start switch. The start winding is in series with the start switch. The start winding provides a rotating magnetic field in one direction enabling the motor to start. The motor can be reversed by reversing the connections of either the start winding or the run winding but not both.

A motor does not have a forward or reverse direction like a vehicle. Electrical terminology is clockwise or counter clockwise rotation determined by looking from the opposite drive end of the shaft. That said, a split phase induction motor has two sets of coils and a centrifugal start switch. The start winding is in series with the start switch. The start winding provides a rotating magnetic field in one direction enabling the motor to start. The motor's directional rotation can be changed by reversing the connections of either the start winding or the run winding but not both.
