Hi Bob, Greetings from Borneo, your videos inspired me to learn more about electronics. I'm a beginner, was laid off by my employer post-covid years. Now I have more time to learn & practice repairing the electronic board sold by my ex employer to the customers. Fortunately some of the customers still contacted me for help to troubleshoot their machine. At least I can charge them if I manage to fix their machine's power supply to make ends meet. Thanks a lot for your free educational videos 🙏👍👍👍

Excellent video Review!!! I was desperately looking for this info, about how to test check measure Capacitors. At most of my jobs, I just did voltage, continuity and resistance tests checks. But sometimes used to come across capacitor troubleshooting which I had forgotten. Many other "you tubes capacitor videos" talk so much never explain plainly, go to the point, never really explain show so clearly the good capacitor points You made. E.g. specially the one, about BEFORE working testing them YOU HAVE TO DISCHARGE them. You made an awesome video. This video was good similar to the way it was explained taught to us many years ago in College. I was trying to remember had forgotten a lot about capacitors. Awesome review, points explanations you made. Thanks!

@bob.kalpon1398

Hi! You have to do two tests. - One is continuity to ground: negative lead on ground, and touch both sides of the capacitor with the positive lead of the tester. In some capacitors, there will be continuity to ground in one side, but no the other side. - The other is continuity, and better with Ohms meter, in both sides of the capacitor. There should not be short circuit or low resistances. For anything suspicious, remove one side of the smd capacitor for capacitance meter test. A lot of the capacitors are 0.1 uF in parallel with everything just to bypass noise. Those ones, get shorted in laptops, tablets, and smartphones, making a whole area in short. You can remove it, and everything will work. It happens a lot, because the Voltage rate is low on them, and become sensitive with the time and easy to short circuit. :-)

For the first test: continuity with a "beep" sound to work faster. For the 2nd test: Ohms meter. If one of them looked suspicious, remove the solder in one side or the component that all and measure it with the "CAP" or "-I I-" symbol in the DMM dial if it is available in your DMM, or with a capacitor meter. DO NOT FORGET to always discharge the capacitor with a short circuit before to perform a measurement. ;-)

In your clip, around 7:00, you're stating that the band on the capacitor correspond to the outer foil connection. In fact, this should be considered as an ideal situation. I found capacitors that were not marked properly in that regard, having the band on the lead which was connected to the inner side. This discovery is based on a youtube video where the technician was connecting a capacitor on a CRO and based on the noise amplitude introduced while holding the capacitor between fingers. If the amplitude is at its lowest when the band side is connected to the scope's negative lead, then the band on the capacitor is pointing to the outside foil lead, otherwise the band is pointing to the inner one. I've been successful to perform that test only with a CRO. While doing it using a DSO, the results weren't as convincing.

+SimpleEnough2k9 Hi! There is not discovering in KZread for anybody. Video: 15:22 The knowledge comes from several decades ago before my father borne! Since the beginning of any electric component, there are a lot of test, investigation, datasheets, and updates to product introduction to main universities and manufactures handbook. All brand cares very well about an electrolytic capacitor's mark. But most brands don't care anymore about the non polar foiled capacitors. And the mark can be on any side or missing that all now day's. In minute 7:15 I sad: " ...many years ago, Fabricants USED to mark where is the outside paper for designers to know"... When we say they used to, it means in English: that it is not use anymore. Evidence of it, is most capacitors alike you will see now days, are missing the mark. I talked about because this knowledge will not escape from the list of cares of any designing engineer. But some "fast food" technical schools let the students to graduate missing that knowledge. Or in the worse situation, people are trying to learn only from KZread, and forget to go to school, or to search in books as the main source of formal education. The one that could be confuse about in my video is I didn't talk about Tantalum capacitor. I spoke, but jumped it, leaving it out the subject for next video.

Hi! For a simple photo cell test use Ohms meter. For function test, use voltage meter. The best way to get a good result is to set up a "window comparator circuit". It can be done with 2 Operational Amplifiers. I recommend to use the ones that works OK with +V and Gnd, and voltage between 3 and 5 Volts if it is the case. Set the voltage level upper of 160mVolts. (The better is something close to half Vcc). There are low noise comparators too. If you work with photocells or phototransistors, you must make the window comparator in order to control the light's hysteresis or to reduce the noise's effects.

+wolfenstein1040 Good question! We use 5 Watts, 10 or 25 Watts resistors. Any value in Ohms between 100 to 4.7K can be OK. (In reality any good resistor from the ones you have on hand). There is a capacitor discharge formula = [5 x (R x C)]. R is the resistor in Ohms, C is the capacitor in Faraday, and multiplied 5 times. BUT, that "5" is a constant number used for a good connection discharge. So, for safety, YOU MUST last about 3 times the value of the formula, once you made a good contact between them. ;-) (Try to find high Ohms resistors for the main high Voltage capacitors discharge. The lower of the resistor, the higher of the Watts for it)!

Kenya! Wow! After a cold winter I wish to go there. I had to heat my little electronics lab for hour and a half before to start to work. I will make more videos soon. I was waiting for the temperature to increase. If you see my clothing, in some of my videos, I am wearing 5 t-shirts to record a video. lol Thank you Daiv! :-)
do you think ESR testers are accurate for testing caps on the boards ?

if i have a small smd capacitor like in the end of you video. can you measure continuity between the legs on it to if its short or do i have to remove it first ? why need to remove it, maybe removing only needed when want to read capacitance
I've got a 250v 150uF Capacitor 105 Celsius which I pulled out of tv main board, checking all the components. It's reading 136 uf on my meter. What do think, number on cap too low to re-use? Or still in range?
very good video,,,clear and cool,,,thank you for these information
Very instructive video, look forward to the watching others.

Hi! You have to do two tests. - One is continuity to ground: negative lead on ground, and touch both sides of the capacitor with the positive lead of the tester. In some capacitors, there will be continuity to ground in one side, but no the other side. - The other is continuity, and better with Ohms meter, in both sides of the capacitor. There should not be short circuit or low resistances. For anything suspicious, remove one side of the smd capacitor for capacitance meter test. A lot of the capacitors are 0.1 uF in parallel with everything just to bypass noise. Those ones, get shorted in laptops, tablets, and smartphones, making a whole area in short. You can remove it, and everything will work. It happens a lot, because the Voltage rate is low on them, and become sensitive with the time and easy to short circuit. :-)

For the first test: continuity with a "beep" sound to work faster. For the 2nd test: Ohms meter. If one of them looked suspicious, remove the solder in one side or the component that all and measure it with the "CAP" or "-I I-" symbol in the DMM dial if it is available in your DMM, or with a capacitor meter. DO NOT FORGET to always discharge the capacitor with a short circuit before to perform a measurement. ;-)
came here to learn how to test capacitors....end up watching the whole video and learning sth else 😌😌
Its good videos and very useful.
awesome, super super helpful
Thank you so much!
In your clip, around 7:00, you're stating that the band on the capacitor correspond to the outer foil connection. In fact, this should be considered as an ideal situation. I found capacitors that were not marked properly in that regard, having the band on the lead which was connected to the inner side. This discovery is based on a youtube video where the technician was connecting a capacitor on a CRO and based on the noise amplitude introduced while holding the capacitor between fingers. If the amplitude is at its lowest when the band side is connected to the scope's negative lead, then the band on the capacitor is pointing to the outside foil lead, otherwise the band is pointing to the inner one. I've been successful to perform that test only with a CRO. While doing it using a DSO, the results weren't as convincing.

+SimpleEnough2k9 Hi! There is not discovering in KZread for anybody. Video: 15:22 The knowledge comes from several decades ago before my father borne! Since the beginning of any electric component, there are a lot of test, investigation, datasheets, and updates to product introduction to main universities and manufactures handbook. All brand cares very well about an electrolytic capacitor's mark. But most brands don't care anymore about the non polar foiled capacitors. And the mark can be on any side or missing that all now day's. In minute 7:15 I sad: " ...many years ago, Fabricants USED to mark where is the outside paper for designers to know"... When we say they used to, it means in English: that it is not use anymore. Evidence of it, is most capacitors alike you will see now days, are missing the mark. I talked about because this knowledge will not escape from the list of cares of any designing engineer. But some "fast food" technical schools let the students to graduate missing that knowledge. Or in the worse situation, people are trying to learn only from KZread, and forget to go to school, or to search in books as the main source of formal education. The one that could be confuse about in my video is I didn't talk about Tantalum capacitor. I spoke, but jumped it, leaving it out the subject for next video.

Bob kalpon my name is Saleem , I really thank you very much for your effort in making this video I really appreciate everything you have taught me today you are a very nice guy especially at the end when you said dont rely on youtube but look at the books ....so I wanna go to school for that but dont know what to ask for to learn about capacitors and mother board repair like ellectronics repair so please help me go study for it what should i look for? Thank you.
Hello, I recently pulled out a capacitor from a disposable camera, what do you think would be the average size for one of those??

Hi Bob very good and informative video. I have a question: will you make a video about testing transistors and ICs ? Thanks
what do you set your multimeter at to test the photo cell in my motion sensor light. the light works but the light will come on even in the daylight, so i want to test the board and i think its a cds, marked on the board?
@bob.kalpon1398

Hi! For a simple photo cell test use Ohms meter. For function test, use voltage meter. The best way to get a good result is to set up a "window comparator circuit". It can be done with 2 Operational Amplifiers. I recommend to use the ones that works OK with +V and Gnd, and voltage between 3 and 5 Volts if it is the case. Set the voltage level upper of 160mVolts. (The better is something close to half Vcc). There are low noise comparators too. If you work with photocells or phototransistors, you must make the window comparator in order to control the light's hysteresis or to reduce the noise's effects.
thanks broe you are good teacher
Can you use a light bulb to discharge the capacitor so that you can easily tell when it's finish?
+Bob. Kalpon sir, how much time or physical sense, do I need to wait to discharge a large capacitor like the example you showed in your video?

+wolfenstein1040 Good question! We use 5 Watts, 10 or 25 Watts resistors. Any value in Ohms between 100 to 4.7K can be OK. (In reality any good resistor from the ones you have on hand). There is a capacitor discharge formula = [5 x (R x C)]. R is the resistor in Ohms, C is the capacitor in Faraday, and multiplied 5 times. BUT, that "5" is a constant number used for a good connection discharge. So, for safety, YOU MUST last about 3 times the value of the formula, once you made a good contact between them. ;-) (Try to find high Ohms resistors for the main high Voltage capacitors discharge. The lower of the resistor, the higher of the Watts for it)!
Thanks Bob, I'm trying to learn how to fix electronics but as you stated... I'm trying to learn what I think I need to know from KZread. What books would you recommend and do you have a supplier for capacitors used in modern LED TV's and motherboards? Since i was a kid I would take my electronics apart and I've seen more than what you showed but not sure what function each type of capacitor is used for?
