It's there to balance the load out because most motors have a high current (amperage) startup. That's all its there for, a temporary source of storage until the motor gets into its running draw (amperage). These systems are built based on the assumption that the distributing facility has the available amperage and voltage to maintain the current draw of said appliances once they are in 'run' mode. 99% of the time this works. If there isn't enough generation or distribution, this system fails and becomes more reflective of most d/c audio systems. There becomes a net negative in energy potential, and voltage begins to drop; causing dimming, resonance fluctuation, even outage. In the d/c world, this causes dimming, resonance fluctuation and either amp shut down or car shut down (an outage). The amps having self turn off act as a load shed, hopefully creating time for the generating and distribution systems time to recover. If they don't you get car shut offs, and potentially failed batteries, amps and alternators.
and what exactly in my post is wrong??? the fact that i stated "some may argue that it pulls more amperage then it puts out"?? key word there being "some"... i never said that was what i say about it. that is one of the biggest arguments i see about them, which is why i put that.
Electricity doesn't mean electronics. I provided proof that what you're saying wasn't true. If you can wire a home with 120v ac to code, that doesn't mean you know how to design a pcb, or have a clue about anything other than what the ibew tells you. That's just one example... but clearly you don't know what you're talking about. Also, don't try to act like you know me. lol.
Lol call me whatever you want. Those huge 10k farad caps aren't electrolytic. They have high ESR which makes them absolutely worthless.
I never said I was an electrician, retard. Stop assuming. I've been in the electrical generation, transmission and distribution world all of my life. Also, I was clearly going off the numerous examples you provided in just this thread as to how you are. You do know more than your everyday average person, but your smarter than thou attitude at any and all advice you give is what garners people's reactions to you. Your opinion doesn't count as 'proof' as to what I said being wrong either. And yes, I would definitely use a bunch of random internet sites as absolute truth on things such as electricity and all of the laws governing it. I'm not going to post towards you any more, because frankly I'm done being nice. I started out just calling out that you seemed brash when someone else was obviously kidding. I then offered my take on the matter, and you took it personal. With me. I'm not 'acting' like I know you, I'm simply expressing an observation. Take it as you will, but know that you aren't the end all be all of electrical knowledge. Also, people will never 'learn' from you as long as you come across in a manner that seems as though you think you are.
What do you think? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
To balance resonance in an A/C circuit. Filter static if you will. Remember A/C is 60 (US, 50 EU) cycles on/off per second. It's not continuous flow as D/C. This resonance fluctuating is very deadly to electric motors
LOL!!! I said it was an example. Awesome name tho bro.
Then why don't you know what you're talking about?
No, the proof I provided does. Lol reference the link in that post that proves you wrong. Ignoring it doesn't mean it's not there. I don't give a crap how you think of me guy.... as long as you learn something.... and you have whether you admit it or not.
Uh oh... keyboard tough guy gonna take the gloves off (easier to type that way?). You acknowledged there that I provided proof. You also didn't mean to but you acknowledged that you could not find a source opposing it. Then you chose to attack the internet for some reason. I'm in awe.
I was too. lol
No, I don't take things on the internet personal... unless it's a personals ad //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
I never said I was... but when I'm right I'm right and I'm not going to listen someone tell me I'm not. Lol I'll just back it up and if they don't like it so be it. You tried to save face by lying. I called you on it. Now you're mad. That's what really happened and anyone with eyes can see it.
I have several degrees in this field. I've designed pcbs and built circuits. I have intimate experience with data transmission in several forms including radio, telephone, and unmodulated digital such as fiber optics and plain old copper. My skills and trade are broad..... but the electrical laws and theories are the same among them.
