To eliminate this potential problem there should be a bleed resistor across the terminals of the start capacitor.
Start capacitor with resistor.
The purpose of the resistor is to bleed off residual voltage in the capacitor after it has been disconnected from the circuit after motor start up.
View our full line of start capacitors.
Not all start caps use resistors as there are other ways to accomplish the task of reducing residual voltage in a capacitor.
Copeland electrical handbook p a5 a6.
Find dry electrolytic nonpolarized start capacitor models in a wide range of sizes and mfd ratings.
Round molded cases can protect start capacitors from oil dirt moisture and grease helping prolong maintenance free performance and reduce replacement costs.
Not all start capacitors will use one as there are other ways to accomplish this.
If damaged or not provided install a new resistor and clean the relay contacts or replace the relay.
