Textbook Question
Chapter 20, Problem 1PA
You are changing the starting relay on a central air-conditioning unit when you notice that the identifying mark on the compressor-run capacitor is connected to the run winding of the compressor. Should you change the capacitor connection so that the identifying mark is facing the line side or is it correct as connected? Explain your answer.
