Many single-phase motors used on refrigeration systems will incorporate some type of capacitor. They will either use a start capacitor to aid in its starting or a run capacitor to improve its running ...

Most circuits use bypass capacitors and can deliver substandard performance if the capacitors have poor pulse characteristics. Few if any articles cover how to test bypass capacitors for pulse ...

In residential and light commercial HVACR, we work with run capacitors every day, and you may have noticed that they fail quite often. Because of this, many companies are beginning to integrate ...

When checking and verifying capacitors, inductors, diodes, bipolar transistors, and cables, the gamut of test methods can range from those used to confirm a defective component to identifying the ...

Radio experimenters often need a variable capacitor to tune their circuits, as the saying goes, for maximum smoke. In decades past these were readily available from almost any scrap radio, but the ...

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Aug 12, 2015) - EEStor Corporation (TSX VENTURE:ESU) ("EEStor" or the "Company"), today announced the findings of the independent Phase 3 testing conducted by Intertek ...

All engineers know resistance is usually bad news. It generates heat. It reduces efficiency. It wears out components and cuts operational lifetimes. However, resistance is not the only kind of ...

THE Electrical Research Association has recently reported an interesting development which has taken place in connexion with its programme of research on gas blast circuit breakers. Normally the ...
