Capacitor Checking?
I work on machines that contain 5 capacitors wired in parallel. they are each 11.5 milli-farad's in size. I need to find a good way of testing them individually. Will a regular multi-meter with a cap tester work? Is there anything better to usee considering the size of the caps? Where can I buy the alternative?
Also, I am using 230vac single phase to power these
Seperate the capacitors
Using a 220V ordinary incandescent bulb (40W any size) put in series with a 220V supply and connect it to one capacitor...if the lamp glows the capacitor is OK.
Repeat the test for each capacitor.
There you have it...good luck.
