Can you by-pass a capacitor in an electric motor?
You can not by-pass the capacitor in an electric motor. Most are capacitor-start motors which require the capacitor to be operational in order to start. If the capacitor is not working then it will need to be replaced.
Can a larger capacitor be used in an air conditioner?
Function of Capacitor in Air Conditioner:Compressor Motor Capacitor: This air conditioning capacitor usually consists of two capacitors that are combined. This vital capacitor gets the motor running in the air conditioning unit.Start Capacitor: This capacitor provides auxiliary support and that is not a standard on every air conditioning unit. It can give the motor a boost to get it started.Indoor Blower Motor Capacitor: This capacitor is self-explanatory. It is responsible for starting the indoor-blower-motor and keeping it running efficiently.Outdoor Fan Motor Capacitor: The name says it all for this capacitor. It starts the outdoor fan and keeps the air flowing through the coils that run on the outside of an air conditioner.
What is the common application for capacitors in electric motors?
There are 2 types of capacitor including starting capacitor and running capacitor running capacitor are used to improve the power factor of motor. starting capacitor used in split phase induction motor . starting capacitor may isolate from motor,s starting winding through of centrifugal switch after getting motor 90% of it,s rated speed.
What is the basic shape of a start capacitor?
If you mean run capacitor, as in the run capacitor for an AC motor, it is usually a round or oval cylinder.
Will a 370 VAC motor run using a 440 VAC capacitor?
If the motor is rated at 370 v and the supply is 370 v, the capacitor needs to be rated at 370 or more volts, so a 440 v capacitor will be OK.
What happens if you put a inductor instead of the capacitor at the capacitor start motor?
An inductor can be used, in principle, but it has to be the right inductance, it will waste more power than a capacitor, and the motor would rotate the opposite way.
Can i not use a capacitor on a motor equipted with the motor?
No. You won't be able to start the motor without the capacitor.
What happens if you place a capacitor on a dc motor?
Depending on voltage and amperage needed to run the motor,say,3volts.If you use a 3+volt capacitor what will happen is that the motor will turn once(not rev/min) and stop when the capacitor is completely drained which would occur in about half a second or less. Contributed writer:Dennis Wachira.

How is it harder to fix a built in refrigerator as opposed to a regular refrigerator?
You'll want to make sure to take caution and unplug your refrigerator, and discharge the capacitor in the motor/compressor. A fridge and freezer consist of two basic components, a condensor coil and an evaporator coil. A coolant is circulated through these coils by a motor and compressor. You can test and replace each of these components.
What is the value of capacitor for 1hp ac motor?
The value of the capacitor for a 1hp AC motor depends on the specific motor design and manufacturer guidelines. It is important to consult the motor's documentation or contact the manufacturer to determine the correct capacitor value for proper motor operation.
How do you connect capacitor to a capacitor start motor?
A start capacitor is wired in series with the motor's start winding via a centrifugal start switch. The switch disconnects the capacitor and start winding once the motor has reached a pre-determined minimum speed. The motor then continues to run on its main field winding. A different design uses a "start-and-run" capacitor which remains in circuit whilst the motor is running.

Why can a run capacitor with a single phase motor remain in circuit after the motor starts?
Because from the capacitor characteristics at first it will charge and then it will stsrt to run so when the motor get power from single phase capacitor take time for charging. Amit.
Why the oil filled capacitor is used in permanent split capacitor motor?
An oil filled capacitor is used in (PSC) motor because the capacitor is in the circuit the whole time the machine is running. The capacitor is oil filled to cool it due to being in circuit the whole time
What is a split phase motor with relay and capacitor called?
A capacitor start motor is a split phase motor that uses a capacitor in series with the start winding to cause a greater phase shift, resulting in greater starting torque. It uses a centrifugal switch to switch out the start winding and capacitor once the motor is up to speed. I assume this switch is what you're referring to as a "relay".
