Basic Electrical Engineering: Inductance and Capacitance You find that a 25-µF capacitor connected to a 480 V AC is defective. The storeroom has no capacitors with a 480 V AC rating. However, you find two capacitors rated at 50 µF and 370 V AC. Can these capacitors be connected in such a manner that they can replace the defective capacitor? If yes, explain how they are connected and why the capacitors will not be damaged by the lower voltage rating. If no, explain why they cannot be used without damage to the capacitor.
