Using Fluke Meter to Test Air Compressor Motor Capacitors & opening up my SIP One Way Check valve. ⚡
In this video I start to investigate why my SIP air compressor keeps tripping the overload breaker. I test both the start and run capacitors with a Fluke 77 IV multimeter which has capacitance testing. ⬇️💥⬇️ Links Below & Donations ⬇️💥⬇️ These turn out to be ok so it's off with the drive belt and onto the one way check valve to see if that's working.
