I substituted a 2Hp motor with my 5Hp RPC motor. I swapped in a lower range current OL relay. The run capacitor values where reduced but the ratio remained almost the same. The 2Hp has a run capacitor ratio equal to 0.55, with voltages under load equal to 246,246,248. The 5Hp has a run capacitor ratio of 0.55555555556 with similar voltage readings under load. The whole thing scaled down cleaner than I thought it would. The 2Hp is a Reliance TE motor. I'm keeping it like this.
