Dual Run Capacitor
The dual run capacitor is responsible for providing the start-winding torque for both the compressor and the condenser fan. If the capacitance (µF) drops below the required threshold, the compressor cannot stay in sync with the magnetic field under load, causing a massive spike in amperage and heat. This triggers the internal bi-metal thermal overload switch, which shuts the unit down immediately to prevent the motor windings from melting.
