If you lower the start cap size it may take milliseconds longer to start so it will still use the approximate same amt of power. Size? search for "appliance repair parts" enter your model number and you may be able to locate the value of the start cap. go from there.

Mostly capacitor is used in the induction motors to improve the power factor , and make them to work as a self starting machine. In the small size , capacity dc motor has capacitor across it to smooth running without spark


What is the difference between voltage gain obtained with bypass capacitor and without the bypass capacitor?

A: A TRANSISTOR gain is determined by current flow on the collector by adding a resistor to the emitter this current flow is reduced by adding or bypassing this resistor with a capacitor the net effect is that this emitter resistor will be reduced in value as frequency increases therefore change gain as a function of frequency input

Why do you use capacitors on fan motors or blowers?

We use capacitor on fan motor or blower to create phase difference between two winding(Starting & running). This phase difference introduce starting torque on fan motor. Otherwise without capacitor the torque produced in positive Half cycle of AC supply is nullify by the torque produced in negative half cycle.
