drop in replacement for inside fan capacitor. I dont suggest everyone work on home a/c. But this part probably saved me $500.
In the past I would have called a repair man and it would’ve cost me 10 times what I have in repairing my fan on my furnace was too easy loosen the screw unplug two connectors and replaced with new one
Brought my 48” shop fan back to life
Seems good havent used them yet just got them incase i need them for my ac
Used it for speaker crossover network. Works great. Received no physical defect.

Description

A capacitor is an electric component that temporarily stores an electrical charge. A "run capacitor" supports electric motors, such as in air conditioner or heat pump units, a fan motor or a compressor motor. The capacitor has two terminals.
Capacitors come in a variety of sizes, depending on the capacitance (µF or MFD), such as 12.5 µF, and also the voltage. A 440 volt capacitor can be used in place of a 370 volt, as it is build better, but the 370 can’t be used in place of a 440 volt. It will work for a while and will fail prematurely, as exceeding the capacitor's rated voltage will cause the dielectric to break down and the capacitor to short out. Same as an electric wire- 600V rated wire is better than 300V one .The capacitance(µF or MFD) must be the same or stay within 10%+ or 5%- of its original value . Example: 12.5 µF cap can be substituted by 11.87 to 13.75 MFD µF with the same or better voltage ratings capacitor . Oval-shaped run capacitors are commonly used for air conditioning, to help in the starting of the compressor or condenser fan motor.
You will ask “Why I need a Cap that is rated 440V in my A/C?”
Answer: You need to realize that a motor is an inductive device. When the supply voltage is applied to the motor run winding, the voltage across the start winding will be increased to a higher voltage value. A motor acts like a transformer with the run winding acting as the primary and the start winding acting as the secondary. This is why the capacitor has a much higher voltage rating than the 230 being the supply voltage.
If a Capacitor is not EIA-456-A approved means it is not approved for US market.

Installed it on a big shop fan and it works great.
Blower working like new again.
fit perfect at a great price
