Can anyone fill in one of the many gaps in my knowledge? I would like to know of any way that it is possible to establish that a start/run capacitor in-situ has failed using just a multi-meter that does not measure capacitance. Many thanks
Among other ways ou can charge them up to a known voltage and measure the time taken to discharge to half voltage with a known load. From there it is not too hard to calculate the capacitance.You can't tell the exact value without a caacitance meter or bridge.
