Overcurrent protection for the motor in provided by

Answer 1

$\huge\mathfrak\red{Answer}$

Overcurrent protection for the motor is provided by Motor overload device.

Additional Information:-

$\bigstar$ Overload protection is installed in the main control circuit or power line of motor to protect from damage due to mechanical malfunction overload conditions when it is running.

$\bigstar$ The effect of an overload is an excessive rise in temperature in the motor windings due to current higher than full load current.

$\bigstar$ Properly sized overload protection disconnects the motor from the power supply when the heat generated in the motor circuit or windings approaches a damaging level for any reason.
