A protection circuit for a permanent split capacitor motor includes a positive temperature coefficient (PTC) resistor in series with the auxiliary winding of the motor for protecting the auxiliary winding during normal operation. At a predetermined temperature anomaly due to over-current conditions in the windings, the PTC resistor will sharply increase its resistance to a point wherein no current will pass, effectively open circuiting the auxiliary winding from the power source, thereby protecting the windings from damage. A thermally responsive protector may also be used in conjunction with the PTC resistor for providing further over-current protection to both the main and auxiliary windings.
