What happens if you use the wrong capacitor?
If you use the wrong value of capacitor, then you will change the phase angle of the associated windings with respect to the supply. A small variation in capacitance should be tolerated by the motor. A large variation may lead to imbalance and excessive vibration in the motor that could eventually lead to mechanical failure.
What happens if a capacitor is surged?
If, in reaction to the surge, the foil is punctured, venting may occur and the capacitor will dry out. In ceramic capacitors, surges with low energy and high voltage can increase current leakage. Thermal stress can crack the dielectric and may also result in increased leakage or shorts.
