Interlocking :Torque =+ve.

(Friction angle >helix angle),
efficiency<50%.

Overhauling: Torque=-ve.
(friction angle <helix angle).
Efficiency>50%.

I was thinking the same, there is no relation between overhauling and efficiency. Overhauling means screw will automatically lower the load. Technically negative torque required to lower the load ie. Friction angle < lead angle. But it can be also proved by using maths efficiency >50% for overhauling.
