Many single-phase motors used on refrigeration systems will incorporate some type of capacitor. They will either use a start capacitor or a run capacitor. Some motors will even use both.

Single-phase motors, adjustable-speed drives (ASDs), and power factor (PF) correction applications often depend on capacitors to operate properly. This article explains how to test these critical ...

The inter-layer capacitance greatly affects the PDN’s performance in each case. [James] designed a set of circuit boards that enabled him to place different types of capacitors at various ...
