WARNING

HIGH VOLTAGE!

Disconnect ALL power before servicing or installing.

Multiple power sources may be present. Failure to do

so may cause property damage, personal injury

or death.

1. Discharge capacitor and remove wire leads.

WARNING

Discharge capacitor through a 20 to 30 OHM

resistor before handling.

2. Set an ohmmeter on its highest ohm scale and connect

the leads to the capacitor -

A. Good Condition - indicator swings to zero and slowly

returns to infinity. (Start capacitor with bleed resistor will

not return to infinity. It will still read the resistance of the

resistor).

B. Shorted - indicator swings to zero and stops there -

replace.

C. Open - no reading - replace. (Start capacitor would

read resistor resistance.)

S-15B CAPACITANCE CHECK

Using a hookup as shown below, take the amperage and

voltage readings and use them in the formula:

S-16A CHECKING FAN AND BLOWER MOTOR

WINDINGS (PSC MOTORS)

The auto reset fan motor overload is designed to protect the

motor against high temperature and high amperage condi-

tions by breaking the common circuit within the motor,

similar to the compressor internal overload. However, heat

generated within the motor is faster to dissipate than the

compressor, allow at least 45 minutes for the overload to

reset, then retest.
