    I've got an old motor with a start capacitor, the motor only hums when I try to start it. I cleaned the centrifugal switch contacts and it still only hums on start...... so I wanted to test the capacitor and that's how I wound up here. Now I shall go test the capacitor, I'll be right back with the results........ and I'm back and still alive .... the capacitor on the motor is DEAD, won't hold a charge after numerous attempts. Another capacitor I happened to have did hold a charge and a nice spark on the run and start side. I 'll order the correct capacitor for the old motor and see if that will get it to start properly. Thanks for the youtube. No telling how many motors go to the scrap yard when a new capacitor would fix them. Thanks again.

    Excellent. We can measure the capacity of 30uF using another capacitor. If we have another 30uF, we put them in series and we have 15uF. If we have one under 20uF, we measure it and we find the value = a, then we put it in series with the larger capacitor and we find the value = b, b

    The first way looks the best fun but please use a quick test block or similar. These are designed to temporarily connect things to the mains. Just makes it a bit safer for you. Thank you so much for posting:)

    After testing the cap, it seems to be okay, it's holding and releasing charge perfectly.
    Looks like I need a new saw 🫠

  • @leedevries5660
    @leedevries5660 5 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    It should be realized that when applying a capacitor to AC mains and removing it, there will be a DC voltage present.
    The size of the voltage will be determined by when the supply was removed in the AC cycle. It could be anywhere between 0 and +/- 340V DC ( as the peak DC voltage is 1.414 times the AC RMS voltage,
    My method is to connect the capacitor to a IEC lead, plugging it into a power point and switching the power ON and OFF briefly. I then remove the lead from the mains supply & I measure the voltage with the multimeter and look for a voltage >300 Volts. Discharge the capacitor by short circuiting it and repeat the process several times for voltage >300 Volts.
    Then measure the voltage every 5 minutes or so & if the capacitor is still charged to the same voltage, you have a good capacitor. If not it is leaky to some degree and should be replaced.
    Discharge the capacitor before removing it from the IEC connector!
    I don't think we should be showing anyone "poking things into power points directly"
    If you do this sort of testing a lot, make up a lead with insulated alligator clips (sometimes know as a suicide cord), but do not leave it lying around!

    Please note that, while doing this, I suggest that capacitor not to be connected directly even little time, since we want check capacitor is Ok or nor, there may be open or short internal, it should be always to be connected one series lamp with this, so the test will be safe, if not incase short, it will explode with no time.

A “duel” capacitor shares a common..... measure mfd from common to either side and see if you’re in range. Generally “C” will be common, “F” will be fan and “H” will be hermetically sealed compressor.

I need help :( I have a power washer, it was humming on start and not running, I had a larger capacitor in garage and changed it over, motor ran for a minute and blew up capacitor, it was rated over double uf.. Is it a start or run capacitor? There is only one so I assumed it was a start,.. I will send link to power washer pdf parts :) thanks if you can help

      If no centrifugal switch connected in series with the capacitor then the capacitor remains connected during running period. Please always replace the capacitor having the same rating (uf must be same, voltage and temp can be higher or same) for both start and run capacitors.
