The American-made multisection can capacitors of days gone by had symbols (circle/semicircle/square/triangle etc) to identify which terminals had what capacitance values. These Japanese units used color dots to indicate which terminal was which. I tried to get BabelFish and a shareware program called MultiTranse to translate the colors, but didn't get anything near the symbols on the capacitor. Maybe I wasn't using the right font/character set??? Don't know much about the Japanese language or their symbology. Maybe there is someone lurking in here that could translate the colors for the OP?????? -- Dave M MasonDG44 at comcast dot net (Just substitute the appropriate characters in the address) Life is like a roll of toilet paper; the closer to the end, the faster it goes.

Good show!!! If I read the symbols correctly, looks like the White dot is the 1uF terminal; that leaves the Yellow as common. Hope that logic holds true. Strangely, I didn't see any symbols that translated to yellow that looked even remotely like the symbol for the common terminal. -- Dave M MasonDG44 at comcast dot net (Just substitute the appropriate characters in the address) Life is like a roll of toilet paper; the closer to the end, the faster it goes.

Wouldn't the use of a simple cap meter sort this out? |
