The flame-retardant plastic case meets UL 94V-0 standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCeiling fans often specify 6µF for optimal torque and startup performance. A failing capacitor causes the fan to hum without spinning, run at reduced speed, or fail to change speeds properly.

However, for best motor performance and lifespan, match the original capacitance as closely as possible. Using 5µF on a motor designed for 6µF may cause weaker startup torque; using 7µF may cause the motor to run warmer than intended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eQ: My original capacitor measures 4.8µF on a multimeter. Is it bad?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA: Yes. A good 6µF capacitor should read between approximately 5.4µF and 6.6µF. A reading of 4.8µF is about 20% below rated value, indicating the capacitor has degraded and should be replaced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eQ: Is this capacitor polarized?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA: No. CBB61 motor capacitors are non-polarized.
