Product details

The U.S. Seal BC-400 is a 400 to 480 MFD, 115V capacitor that measures about 1-13/16 in by 3-3/8 in.

What it does

A capacitor of this type wires into an electric motor circuit to help the motor start turning or to keep it running once it is up to speed. Capacitors like the BC-400 are commonly used with pool and spa pump motors, and a failed capacitor is a common reason a motor hums or will not start at all.

Before you order

This listing is for the BC-400 capacitor only, rated 400 to 480 MFD at 115V and sized about 1-13/16 in by 3-3/8 in, sold individually. Match the capacitance, voltage and physical size of your existing capacitor before ordering a replacement.
