Phase converterTYPO
Jim sez:
" Were they thinking about having the C(extra) at the compressor motor,
simply because of the compressor contactor? That way when the
compressor wasn't running converter voltage would not tend up."
Yeah Jim, that was the plan. Evidently you read the posts more carefully
than some.

... Placing the caps directly on the compressor motor
would (should) be a way of overcoming the excessive starting load, while
not
causing excessive strain on the idler's insulation during standby.
For wires short (less than 1/20th wavelength for practical purposes) with
respect to a wavelength (5,000 km for 60 Hz), the voltage will be the
same
all along the wire (ignoring for the moment IR drop). So it doesn't
matter
which end of the wires has the capacitor.
