D.1.10Checking the Capacitors
ATTENTION! Before working (installation) on the System read the section "Safety Instruc-
tions" in this Manual.
Do not check the capacitors whilst the generator motor is running! Charged capacitors can be
lethal. Do not contact the capacitors with bare fingers or non-insulated metallic objects! In order
to test the capacitors, the terminal lead wires have to be disconnected using pliers or a
screwdriver with insulated handle(s). Once the wires have been removed, the capacitors must
discharged by bridging the capacitor terminals together with a slot screwdriver with an isulated
handle.
Discharge the capacitor
1. Screw driver blade
2. Capacitor connections
3. Capacitor
The capacitors can be checked using a normal multimeter with a continuity beeper. Check that
the multimeter "beeps" when the selector is set to continuity and the end probes are contacted
together.
Checking
Switch the multimeter to „Continuity: acou-
stic signal“ and touch both capacitor termi-
nals with the meter end probes.
