Generator Guru says: 

It is common for the capacitor on a generator to test as working correctly, but then fail when the higher voltages are applied to it by the alternator. It is advisable to always change your Generator Capacitor if the voltage changes (and the engine is normal speed.) This causes 99% of the problems with the electricity output on brushless generators and can damage your alternator if it completely fails, sending a high voltage through the alternator. This could burn out the windings and result in a very expensive replacement being required.

The Capacitor is essential to your Generator producing electricity. It is required to excite the Alternator windings and reduce voltage surges. Capacitors should last the lifetime of the generator, but can burn out or be damaged if any of the following occur: 

  • Generator user has tried to draw more power than the Generator can produce.
  • A surge has happened on equipment and the capacitor has blown to protect the Alternator.
  • The Capacitor is made of Paper cells and has degraded. (Usually found on Chinese built generators.)

    overload capacitor for stephill generator

    Posted by PAUL LEwis on 27th Sep 2024

    absolutely my number 1 choice from now on for any generator spares.the videos on youtube are probably one of the most helpful companies on the market. manufacturers are terrible at sharing information to help you for free- they charge extortionate prices on spares trying to keep you in house- this company enables you to safely diagnose in 99% of situations you get without the added service charge and parts from the manufacturer. if only all companies allowed this information to be shared surely they would be more successful. i give you ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 stars. This is definitely a business that has all angles covered for maximum satisfaction!! thank you PAUL LEWIS PAL RADIO uk ?? chesterfield derbyshire england

    Easy to fit and connect due to the spade terminals, replaced an ageing capacitor that had totally given up. Fast delivery, from a top class seller, in my experience.
