2kW AC compressor high current.
Hi all,
what is a rough resistance on PSC 1Ph motor of about 2kW input power. I have 0.5ohm and 1.5ohm roughly. Is this in the ballpark? I compressor is pulling big amps (2x max running), it is a rotary type, starts OK but I am suspecting that the compressor is sticky. The only thing that doesnt make sense with that diagnosis is that a sticky compressor wouldn't start easily right? should i change out the capacitor?
thank you!
