• Tolerance: ±5%
• Rated Voltage: 250V AC
• Rated Frequency: 50/60Hz
• Termination: 2 Wires
• Dielectric Material: Metallized Polypropylene Film
• Function: Starts and runs single-phase motors in AC power systems.

Replaces / Cross-Reference Part Numbers

• Replaces any 2-wire CBB61 capacitor with matching 5uF capacitance and a voltage rating of 250V AC or lower.

Compatibility & Fitment

• Designed for ceiling fans and other small motor applications requiring a 2-wire start/run capacitor.
• Important: This is a 2-wire capacitor. Verify that your original capacitor also has two wires before purchasing. Check the capacitance (uF) and voltage (V) ratings on your original part to ensure a match.

When to Replace

• Ceiling fan motor hums but does not start.
• Fan operates at only one speed or runs slower than normal.
• Fan blade rotation is weak or requires a manual push to start.
• The original capacitor shows physical damage, such as bulging or leaking.

Installation Tips

• Disconnect the power source at the circuit breaker before servicing the fan.
• Safely discharge the existing capacitor before handling.
• Photograph or note the original wiring configuration before disconnecting.
• The replacement capacitor's voltage rating must be equal to or higher than the original.
• The capacitance rating (uF) must match the original capacitor exactly for proper motor operation.
