A capacitor is an electric component that temporarily stores an electrical charge. A "run capacitor" supports electric motors, such as in air conditioner or heat pump units, a fan motor or a compressor motor. The capacitor has two terminals.
Capacitors come in a variety of sizes, depending on the capacitance (ÂµF or MFD), such as 12.5 ÂµF, and also the voltage. A 440 volt capacitor can be used in place of a 370 volt, as it is build better, but the 370 can't be used in place of a 440 volt. It will work for a while and will fail prematurely, as exceeding the capacitor's rated voltage will cause the dielectric to break down and the capacitor to short out. Same as an electric wire- 600V rated wire is better than 300V one .The capacitance(ÂµF or MFD) must be the same or stay within 10%+ or 5%- of its original value . Example: 12.5 ÂµF cap can be substituted by 11.87 to 13.75 MFD ÂµF with the same or better voltage ratings capacitor . Oval-shaped run capacitors are commonly used for air conditioning, to help in the starting of the compressor or condenser fan motor.
You will ask "Why I need a Cap that is rated 440V in my A/C?"
Answer: You need to realize that a motor is an inductive device. When the supply voltage is applied to the motor run winding, the voltage across the start winding will be increased to a higher voltage value. A motor acts like a transformer with the run winding acting as the primary and the start winding acting as the secondary. This is why the capacitor has a much higher voltage rating than the 230 being the supply voltage.
If a Capacitor is not EIA-456-A approved means it is not approved for US market.
