I'm rewinding an old ceiling fan (48"). 14 poles, 7 for starting, 7 for running. Both has same number of turns which is around 750 turns each pole (wire size is 34 SWG). Winding is basket type.
From net I found people use lower turns (350, 400, 450, 500). I'm confused why my fan has so high number of turns. Is it because of basket type winding or something else?
As both (inner & outer) coils are of same number of turns which one should be Starting and which one is running?

can anyone please suggest me.
