Before go in details about why a capacitor is connected in series with the auxiliary winding let is know what will happen if there is no capacitor in a ceiling fan.
Ceiling fan capacitor speed control wiring diagram.
2 to 1 2 med.
Speed switch connection table.
On this type of capacitor we have five wire in which two is common and 3 other for different value capacitance micro farad.
I need a wire diagram for a 3 speed 3 wire switch and diagram of capacitor for a model tfp ceiling fan my guess is the capacitor is connected wrong and that is why i am only getting 2 speeds submitted.
2 to 1 and 3 3 slow.
Black speed switch three wire capacitor.
5 wire ceiling fan capacitor wiring diagram in ceiling fan we use the 5 wire capacitor for speeds low med and high speed.
Ceiling fan wiring diagram 1.
No connection 1 fast.
Black speed switch with only three terminals connected two wire capacitor.
Now in this you will learn about ceiling fan 5 wire capacitor and it s diagram.
Ceiling fan wiring diagram 2.
In the above ceiling fan speed control wiring diagram i shown the main winding running winding and i connect run wire of motor to the speed control switch and you can see it in above diagram that connection of run wire of motor in switch l point and and 1 and 2 for capacitor.
2 to 3 do not use an electronic speed.
5 years ago ceiling fan speed switch repairhunter fan speed control.
3 wire ceiling fan capacitor instillation with speed controller switch 3 wire ceiling fan motor capacitor diagram 5 wire fan motor capacitor diagram and explanation i hope now you will completely understood the replacing capacitor in ceiling fan motor or other fan however if you have any question regarding this post then ask me comment section.
Below is the circuit diagram of split phase induction motor in a ceiling fan clearly showing a capacitor connected in series with the starting winding auxiliary winding.
