1. Terminal board connected for 230 V.
2. Set ohmmeter to R x 1, adjust to 0 (NOte: Digital

meters are typically used, the reading on this

equipment should be showing OL or infinity).

3. Discharge the capacitor and take the following

ohm readings:
a. Measure resistance between L1 and L2 on

switch, this measures Main and Aux. winding

continuity.

b. Measure resistance between L1 and L2 on

switch, depress the actuator sleeve and this

removes Aux. from circuit giving continuity of

Main winding only.

CAUTION

Disconnect Power Source before checking.
