I've been doing a little searching on ebay, and other sites, for start and/or run capacitors for an RPC I'm putting together. I came across capacitorindustries.com. Has anyone had any experience with this company?
Because of a great find on some enclosures which already have contactors, transformer, fuses, switches, etc... I plan on building 3 of these. Is there anything about the capacitors they sell that make them unsuitable for an RPC?
Thanks,
Tom

Well they advertise motor-start and motor-run so they should be suitable, if you use start relay and contactor with 230ac coil then you do not really need the 120v transformer.
If you look at previous post here with links, there are examples, I believe I posted the schematic and tuning requirements in one post.
What you need to an AC voltmeter and a clamp on Ampmeter to enable accuarate tuning, power factor etc.
