Cover Pools (CP) Hydraulic Electric Motor Start Capacitor

Start capacitors are used during the motor startup phase and are disconnected from the circuit once the motor reaches a predetermined speed, which is usually about 75% of the maximum speed for that motor type.  The start capacitor basically acts like a rechargeable battery.
