1.Due to the heat and environment conditions.
2.proper protection not provided.
3.loose connections.
4.short circuit.etc...
Prevention.cooling the capacitor
proper maintenance and take care.
First it is beyond me as to why you would be painting a capacitor. You also don't give any ratings for the capacitor. By painting over the ratings on the capacitor you will make it difficult for future repairs. Also you don't mention environmental conditions of the type of paint. I have had any number of capacitors fail in different ways and some in spectacular fashion with heat and bubbling surfaces involved which could be a fire hazard. My recommendation would be against painting.
It is not recommended that different companies breakers be interchanged. Any field changes to the original manufacturer's equipment is not allowed due to electrical code rules. If a fault occurs and the result is a fire, your insurance company might not pay out for damages.
Field replacement of a capacitor when you don't have the correct size available.It is an acceptable temporary fix to go up one rating size (for example, from a 5 microfarad original up to a 7.5 microfarad replacement) so long as the voltage of the replacement capacitor is equal to or greater than the original and the current draw under load does not exceed the appliance's current rating as stated on its rating plate.It is important to stress that a capacitor of the correct size should be installed as soon as possible because a larger capacitor will allow a higher current to flow. (Larger meaning not the outside dimensions physically but the capacity in microfarads.) Assuming the supply voltage, supply frequency and everything else in the circuit stays the same, it is safest to assume that the current will increase directly in proportion to the increase in the microfarad capacity. So adding 50% more microfarads would result in 50% more current. If there is a transformer or a motor in the circuit the extra current could damage its windings or even cause a fire!So be careful! IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOBSAFELY AND COMPETENTLYREFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.If you do this work yourself, always turn off the powerat the breaker box/fuse panel BEFORE you attempt to do any work ANDalways use an electrician's test meter having metal-tipped probes(not a simple proximity voltage indicator)to insure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.
If you have a light that is not being powered through a circuit breaker or fuse, you should call a qualified electrician to remove this circuit from the panel's bus and install a circuit breaker for it. Without an overcurrent protective device (circuit breaker or fuse) you have a potential fire hazard.
It is a Clean fire agent gas based system to extinguish the fire & it is a combination of fire inhibitors & cooling..

They need a good reason to fire you.

Yes, as long as there is enough typical/backup/standby power for both.
They are not at all safe and are junk that needs to be recycled and never installed even in a barn let alone a home. Zinsco company went out of business partly because it was discovered that their breakers did not trip when they were supposed to. For this reason they are nothing but a fire hazard and are not to be trusted to protect the wiring in your home or your family from a fire. Do not use any Zinsco or FPE service panel. Destroy this panel so that no one can ever use it.
An additional panel which is connected to the excisting main control panel, displaying all the information that the main panel displays in another location. For example, in an offcie building, you may have the main control panel at the main entrance/exit while you have the remote panel in a security/fire office somewhere else in the building so that the cause of the fire alarm can be easily identified without having to go across one building.
You can legally fire someone for no reason because Missouri is an at will state. They do not have to give you a reason why they are firing you.
A repeater panel looks nearly or identical to the main panel. You can control the functions of the panel that you can do on the main panel. A mimic panel just simply 'mimics' what happens on the fire alarm system. You can't do any functions like enable/disable or sound/silence alarms etc. It has an in built piezo buzzer when a fire alarm is activated, the mimic panel displays this status and tells you the zone/zone description. It may also tell you any faults that have occured. You can silence the buzzer on this mimic panel.
Repeater panels, also known as Annunciator panels are used to provide a visual display of the main panel. They can additionally provide limited control functions, such as acknowledge, silence, and reseting the main fire alarm panel.
Yes.
