Hopefully HP Voltage "Derated" the Cap as well so it can handle our 250V here.. We are across the road from the main transformer for the area so the voltage is highest at our place, I checked the meter box this morning - it is 255-258V on all 3 phases, no wonder I am having problems.

You probably have quite a range to work within. If you are lucky, they specified something like +80/-20% and the 29,000 uF might be OK (measure it). On Sat, Jul 6, 2013 at 4:18 AM, Mark C.
