Air compressor dual capacitor wiring. The capacitor is called a dual capacitor because it is connected to both the condenser fan motor and hermetically sealed compressor. Herm com and fan. In this video jamie shows you how to read a wiring diagram and the basics of hooking up an electric air compressor motor. A dual capacitor has 3 main groups of terminal connections and they are labeled.

The wires feeding high voltage electricity to the condensing unit connect to a contactors line voltage terminal and the air conditioning systems low voltage signal wires connect to the contactors coil. Hvac shop talk podcast represents the blue collar boys and girls in the skilled trades especially hvac. This article gives electric motor start run capacitor installation wiring instructions for electric motor capacitors designed to start run an electric motor such as an ac compressor heat pump compressor or a fan motor and how to wire up a hard starting air conditioner compressor motor fan motor to get an air conditioner heat pump refrigerator or freezer compressor or other electric. It reveals the elements of the circuit as simplified forms as well as the power and signal connections in between the tools.

These tips can be used on most electric motor brands such as weg baldor. On a single capacitor like you have it would only control one part. When some are buying a new capacitor the fixing is done when the faulty capacitor was allowed to affect other areas of the compressor thats why it is good to check other parts as well. When your compressor comes to a halt before you suspect capacitor as the issue check for other parts such as breakers wiring fuses contactors and other areas to eliminate any problem.
