Timecodes:

in this hvacr training video we're going

over why capacitors fail in air

conditioning units so we're going to

verify that this one is good and then

you're going to see it fail in real time

while the system is running

[Music]

next we're going to test this capacitor

to see if it's still good we're going to

test it while it's under load so i

already have my multimeter set up so

this one's going to read

the voltage and current for our

compressor coming off of the capacitor

and this one is measuring the voltage

and the

uh current for the fan motor and so you

can see

one probe is here and one is here so

we're measuring the voltage on the fan

and the common which is connected right
