Default question about well pump wiring

this is a single phase 220V pump with three wires and i use a
capacitor. I know where to connect the capacitor wires. My question is
are they interchangeable? does it matter if the two capactitor wires
are switched? Does a capacitor have positve and negative? thx.

Pump capacitors don't care. They are Non-Polarized.

Hi,
The cap. is non-polarized. Does not matter which way it's hooked up.
