Capacitor Resistance TEST
a. Good Condition - indicator swings to zero and slowly
returns to infinity. (Start capacitor with bleed resis-
tor will not return to infinity. It will still read the
resistance of the resistor).
b. Shorted - indicator swings to zero and stops there -
replace.
c. Open - no reading - replace. (Start capacitor would
read resistor resistance).
2. Testing for ohms between either capacitor terminal and
the capacitor body must show infinite ohms.
Capacitance Check
Using a hookup as shown below, take the amperage and
voltage readings and use them in the formula:

If the value obtained is not within 10% of the rating printed
on the capacitor, replace.
