I am more interested in finding out why it happened. If I go and just replace the capacitor then there is a good possibility that it will happen again. I need to find the root cause of it. I am sure that it is not from too many on off cycles. I am in no hurry with these projects . You know the old saying measure twice ,cut once.There's a lot of time in between cuts. And I hope that I wasn't overloading the machine milling a piece of aluminum with a 3/8 carbide endmill. Maybe it is time for that 3 phase VFD.
