Frequently Asked Questions
Will this capacitor fit my equipment?
Match it to the capacitor you are removing. Read the value printed on the old capacitor and confirm it is the same rating. The replacement voltage rating must be equal to or higher.
What does a run capacitor do?
A motor run capacitor stays in circuit while the motor runs, providing the phase shift a single-phase motor needs to turn efficiently. A failed run capacitor often causes a motor that hums but will not start, or runs hot.
Can I fit a slightly different microfarad value?
No. A run capacitor must match the existing capacitance. Too low or too high a value makes the motor run hot, draw excess current and fail early. Match the µF exactly.
What voltage is this capacitor?
The voltage is not printed on our source listing, so match it to the capacitor you are replacing. Run capacitors of this size are commonly rated 450V 50/60Hz; a higher voltage rating is acceptable.
Is it safe to replace the capacitor myself?
Isolate the appliance from the mains and safely discharge the old capacitor before handling, as it can hold a charge. If you are unsure, have it replaced by a competent person or qualified electrician.
