How to Dynamically Test a Capacitor: Tips and Tricks

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

In this video, we'll show you how to dynamically test a capacitor for electrical faults. A faulty capacitor can be problematic in an electronic circuit, leading to issues such as system failure, power surges, or a complete breakdown. In this tutorial, we'll explain the process of dynamic testing of a capacitor, which involves applying an AC voltage to the capacitor and measuring its output. We'll explore the various tools and equipment required for the task and provide you with tips and tricks to ensure you identify and fix any issues quickly. Whether you're an experienced electrician or a beginner, our guide will help you master the art of dynamic testing of capacitors and get your electronic devices running smoothly.

    Another fun service call Mike. Nothing better than a happy rescue dog or cat in a loving home. 😊 Good information on cap testing, thanks. Jukebox bubble tubes have little aluminum heat blocks at bottom on the glass tubes. The chemical inside the tubes has a low boiling point. …also you get a gold star from me for addressing that little Fujitsu while you were up there. 👍🏻

    I wish i had someone down here to teach me. You have all these young people that go to work(in the world in general) and dont want to learn. Im dying to learn and to make great money, yet cant find anyone to take me in. Man baby gets taken in and he tells you IDK how to do that. Man you're patient, I could only pray i meet an owner like you down here. Which prob wont happen. Respect for how you are handling newbs. Also can you make a video explaining positive and negative pressure coils, the need for condensate drains or traps on a certain coil, and what coil that is. etc. Much love.

    Mikeypipes, looks like your under load test for the fan motor was incorrect. You had an input voltage of 268 instead of 238 thus gave you a false bad dynamic test rating. I was practicing using this test along with you and had my HVAC school app opened and the 238 voltage gave a good capacitor rating. Did you test when you pulled it out too? No hate but that dynamic rating app is very touchy so beware.

    Nothing wrong with changing it out even if it was still good just a piece of mind in my eyes you never know it could go out tomorrow. That's why I use Amrad caps and I change my personal unit caps usually after 4 years or so I don't want my unit to burn up or stop working in the middle of winter all because of a 40 dollar part.
