If we change the polarity of capacitor in ceiling fan why it starts rotating reverse direction?
by changing the polarity of capacitor of single phase ceiling fan can we change the direction of rotation from anticlockwise to clockwise
Why are ceiling fans reversible?
In the winter as you heat your house, the hottest air rises to the ceiling. Ceiling fans are reversible so that you can push this warm air off of the ceiling in the winter. Of course, you will most likely want to run the fan on its lowest speed, since a draft from the fan can actually make you feel colder.
When was a fan invented?
The first cooling fan was invented in 1882. It was invented by Schuyler Skaats Wheeler. The ceiling fan was invented in 1887 by Philip Diehl.
What is the current rating and voltage rating of the ceiling fan?
15 amps 120 volts AC
What are ceiling fan capacitors for?
There are a variety of capacitor sizes in ceiling fans. The capacitor is dependant upon the characteristics of the fans motor. Whether it is a single speed, two speed or three speed. If you think it is the capacitor at fault for the fan not operating, take the fan down and open it up. This will give you the exact sizing for your fan.See sources and related links below.

There is no actual real significant difference, besides the color. A black ceiling fan works the exact same as a white ceiling fan. Of course, the brand of the fan might make a difference, though the color of the fan will not.
Where is the fan capacitor?
If you are referring to a ceiling fan it is in the bell housing where the fan connects to the electrical box at ceiling level.
