Thanks in advance for any help. I have a 7.5hp 3ph motor that I am trying to make into rpc. I found a youtube video of a 7.5hp that the man says works great and it appeared simple. I figure I can balance later if needed. Attached are my hand drawn plans of what he used and I duplicated. I however blow the top out of the capacitor about 3 seconds after motor starts. It starts quick and smooth and continued to run until I got to my breaker box. As he shows using a 110v start capacitor, so did I. Should this be a 220v? I am thinking the PR is allowing back voltage to the capacitor. If you are familiar with this or know the issue, please enlighten me.
