Centrifugal	Inertia
- Works on the principle of balancing of centrifugal forces.	- Works on the principle of moment of inertia
- Not directly attached to the engine shaft	- Directly attached to the engine shaft
- Masses rotate in horizontal plane	- Masses rotate in vertical plane
- Preferred over inertia governors when balancing of revolving masses is an issue.	- Preferred over centrifugal governors when more rapid response to change is needed.
