XPARTCO XPDC80X5-450R Dual Run Capacitor (80/5 MFD, 450V, Round)
The XPARTCO XPDC80X5-450R is a universal dual run capacitor for central air conditioners, heat pumps, and condensing units. A run capacitor works alongside a single-phase AC motor to keep it running efficiently once it's started, boosting torque and correcting the phase of the current feeding the motor's windings. This is a dual capacitor, meaning it combines two separate capacitors — one for the compressor, one for the condenser fan motor — into a single three-terminal can, which is why nearly every residential outdoor AC unit uses exactly this style of component to run both motors from one part.
Rated 80 MFD for the compressor circuit and 5 MFD for the fan motor circuit, at 450VAC, in a round aluminum can housing. Because a capacitor's voltage rating is a ceiling rather than a fixed match, this 450V-rated capacitor can safely replace an original capacitor rated 370V or 440V — going higher on voltage is always safe, going lower is not. Over time, the dielectric material inside a run capacitor breaks down from heat cycling and electrical stress, causing it to lose capacitance or fail outright. A failing dual capacitor produces a very recognizable set of symptoms: the outdoor unit hums but the compressor or fan won't start, the fan spins slowly or needs a manual push to get going, the system trips the breaker, or the capacitor can itself is visibly bulging, domed, or leaking oily residue at the top.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO XPDC80X5-450R Dual Run Capacitor fixes central air conditioners and heat pumps where the outdoor unit hums but won't start, the compressor or fan motor won't run, the fan spins slowly or needs a manual push, the breaker trips, or the capacitor can is visibly bulged or leaking. 80 MFD (compressor) + 5 MFD (fan) dual capacitor, 450VAC, round, 3-terminal. Universal fit for equipment originally speced at 370V or 440V, since a higher voltage rating is always a safe upgrade. Capacitors store a dangerous electrical charge even after power is disconnected — always discharge before handling.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Outdoor AC unit hums but the compressor won't start

XPDC80X5-450R
This is a universal component rather than a single-manufacturer part, so the specific OEM number your HVAC system's label references will vary by brand (Goodman, Trane, Carrier, Rheem, York, Lennox, Amana, and others). This capacitor is a correct replacement for any dual run capacitor matching the 80 MFD / 5 MFD rating with a voltage rating of 450V or lower. If you have your original part number, contact our support team and we will verify compatibility before you order.
Compatibility
This dual run capacitor is a universal replacement compatible with central air conditioners, heat pumps, and condensing units across all major HVAC brands, wherever the original capacitor is rated:
80 MFD (compressor) + 5 MFD (fan motor)
370V, 440V, or 450V (this capacitor's 450V rating exceeds and safely replaces either lower rating)
Round can shape with 3 terminals
Note: The MFD (microfarad) rating must match your original capacitor exactly on both sides — do not substitute a different MFD value for either the compressor or fan side. Voltage rating, on the other hand, can be equal to or higher than the original (450V safely replaces 370V or 440V), but never lower. Can shape (round vs. oval) affects only physical fit inside your unit's electrical compartment, not performance. If you're unsure of your original capacitor's specifications, they're printed directly on its can — contact our support team if you'd like help confirming compatibility.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Danger — Capacitors Store A Dangerous Electrical Charge Shut off power to the outdoor unit at the disconnect box and at the breaker before beginning. A capacitor stores an electrical charge even after power has been disconnected, and that charge can deliver a serious or fatal shock. Before touching any terminal, discharge the capacitor by shorting each pair of terminals together (C-to-Fan, C-to-Herm, and Fan-to-Herm) using an insulated-handle screwdriver, or by using a proper capacitor discharge tool with a resistor. Never short the terminals with a bare metal tool held with your bare hand. If you are not fully comfortable performing a capacitor discharge safely, have a qualified HVAC technician replace this part instead.
⚠️ Photograph The Wiring Before Disconnecting — Match Terminals Exactly Wear work gloves and safety glasses. After confirming the capacitor is fully discharged, photograph the wiring on the old capacitor's terminals before disconnecting anything — dual capacitors are labeled C (Common), Herm or Comp (compressor/hermetic), and Fan, and getting a wire on the wrong terminal can damage the new capacitor or the motor it feeds. Note which terminal each wire came from, or label them individually with tape. Remove the mounting strap or bracket holding the old capacitor in its housing, and disconnect each wire from its terminal. Install the new XPDC80X5-450R in the same mounting position, secure it with the strap or bracket, and reconnect each wire to the matching terminal (C, Herm, and Fan) exactly as labeled. Double-check every connection before restoring power. Restore power at the breaker and disconnect box, and confirm the compressor and fan both start promptly and run smoothly. Tools needed: insulated-handle screwdriver or capacitor discharge tool, nut driver, work gloves, safety glasses.
Frequently Asked Questions
My AC unit hums but won't start. Is this the capacitor?
It's one of the most common causes of exactly that symptom. A run capacitor gives the compressor or fan motor the extra push needed to start turning; without it, the motor can draw power and hum in place without ever actually starting to spin. If you can see the capacitor can and it looks bulged, domed on top, or is leaking a brown oily residue, that's strong visual confirmation of failure.
Can I use a 450V capacitor to replace my old 370V or 440V one?
Yes. Voltage rating is a ceiling, not an exact match requirement — a capacitor rated for a higher voltage than your original will work safely and often lasts longer under the same electrical stress. What you cannot do is go the other direction: never install a capacitor with a lower voltage rating than your original, since that risks premature failure or the capacitor breaking down under normal operating conditions.
Does the round vs. oval shape matter?
Only for physical fit inside your unit's electrical compartment — it has no effect on electrical performance. If your unit's mounting bracket or available space is sized for a round can, use a round capacitor; if it's sized for an oval can, use an oval one. The MFD and voltage ratings are what matter electrically, not the shape.
The fan spins if I give it a push, but won't start on its own. What does that mean?
This is a classic sign of a weak or failing capacitor — it may still have enough charge to keep the motor running once it's already spinning, but not enough to provide the initial starting torque. This is a strong signal to replace the capacitor before it fails completely and leaves you with no cooling at all.
Is this a genuine OEM part?
This is a universal replacement part rather than a brand-specific OEM part. Because dual run capacitors are a standardized component defined by their electrical specifications rather than their manufacturer, this capacitor is a correct replacement for any unit's original capacitor that shares the same 80/5 MFD, 450VAC, round dual run capacitor rating — regardless of which HVAC brand originally installed it.

WG24 Microwave Universal Mica Sheet, Waveguide Cover (2.5" X 4.2")
The WG24 is a universal mica sheet for replacing the waveguide cover in a microwave oven. The waveguide cover sits over the opening where microwave energy enters the cooking cavity from the magnetron. It keeps food splatter, grease, and moisture out of the waveguide while letting microwave energy pass through. Over time the cover can become dirty, burnt, or damaged, and a damaged cover is a common cause of sparking or arcing inside the microwave.
This sheet measures 2.5" x 4.2". It is a universal, cut-to-fit part rather than a model-specific cover, so you trim it to match the shape and size of the original cover in your microwave.
Quick Answer
The WG24 Universal Mica Waveguide Cover Sheet (2.5" x 4.2") replaces a burnt, damaged, or missing waveguide cover in a microwave that sparks or arcs inside the cavity. Trim it to match your original cover. Classic symptom: sparks or burn marks near the waveguide opening on the inside wall of the microwave.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Sparking or arcing inside the microwave cavity
Burn marks or damage at the waveguide cover
Missing, cracked, or warped waveguide cover

Installation Notes
⚠️ Danger: High-Voltage Capacitor Inside
Unplug the microwave before beginning. A microwave contains a high-voltage capacitor that can hold a dangerous, even lethal, electrical charge after it is unplugged. If you are not trained to discharge it safely, do not open the outer cabinet. The waveguide cover is inside the cooking cavity, and on many models you must open the cabinet to reach it. Wear work gloves, and follow your model's service guide.
Remove the old cover and trace its shape onto the mica sheet, then cut the sheet to match with scissors or shears. Clean any grease or food residue from the waveguide opening before fitting the new cover. Secure it the same way the original was held in place, and run a short test with a cup of water to check for sparking.
Frequently Asked Questions
My microwave is sparking inside. Is this the part I need?
A burnt or damaged waveguide cover is a common cause of sparking. Look at the waveguide opening on the cavity wall. If the cover is burnt, cracked, or missing, replacing it may stop the sparking. Stop using the microwave until it is repaired.
Do I have to cut this sheet?
Yes, this is a universal, cut-to-fit sheet. Trace your original cover onto it and trim it to match with scissors or shears.
How many covers will one sheet make?
That depends on the size of your original cover. The sheet measures 2.5" x 4.2". Contact our support team if you need to confirm the quantity included.
Will this fit my microwave?
It fits any microwave whose waveguide cover can be cut from a 2.5" x 4.2" sheet. Measure your original cover, or contact our support team with your model number and we'll help you confirm before you order.

XPARTCO XPDC70X5-450R Dual Run Capacitor (70/5 MFD, 450V, Round)
The XPARTCO XPDC70X5-450R is a universal dual run capacitor for central air conditioners, heat pumps, and condensing units. A run capacitor works alongside a single-phase AC motor to keep it running efficiently once it's started, boosting torque and correcting the phase of the current feeding the motor's windings. This is a dual capacitor, meaning it combines two separate capacitors — one for the compressor, one for the condenser fan motor — into a single three-terminal can, which is why nearly every residential outdoor AC unit uses exactly this style of component to run both motors from one part.
Rated 70 MFD for the compressor circuit and 5 MFD for the fan motor circuit, at 450VAC, in a round aluminum can housing. Because a capacitor's voltage rating is a ceiling rather than a fixed match, this 450V-rated capacitor can safely replace an original capacitor rated 370V or 440V — going higher on voltage is always safe, going lower is not. Over time, the dielectric material inside a run capacitor breaks down from heat cycling and electrical stress, causing it to lose capacitance or fail outright. A failing dual capacitor produces a very recognizable set of symptoms: the outdoor unit hums but the compressor or fan won't start, the fan spins slowly or needs a manual push to get going, the system trips the breaker, or the capacitor can itself is visibly bulging, domed, or leaking oily residue at the top.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO XPDC70X5-450R Dual Run Capacitor fixes central air conditioners and heat pumps where the outdoor unit hums but won't start, the compressor or fan motor won't run, the fan spins slowly or needs a manual push, the breaker trips, or the capacitor can is visibly bulged or leaking. 70 MFD (compressor) + 5 MFD (fan) dual capacitor, 450VAC, round, 3-terminal. Universal fit for equipment originally speced at 370V or 440V, since a higher voltage rating is always a safe upgrade. Capacitors store a dangerous electrical charge even after power is disconnected — always discharge before handling.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Outdoor AC unit hums but the compressor won't start
Condenser fan won't spin, or spins slowly and needs a manual push to get going
System trips the breaker shortly after starting
AC blows warm air because the compressor isn't running
Repeated clicking sound from the contactor as it tries and fails to start the motor
Capacitor can visibly bulging, domed on top, or leaking oily residue
System that used to start slowly and has now stopped starting altogether
Burning smell from the outdoor unit's electrical compartment

XPDC70X5-450R
This is a universal component rather than a single-manufacturer part, so the specific OEM number your HVAC system's label references will vary by brand (Goodman, Trane, Carrier, Rheem, York, Lennox, Amana, and others). This capacitor is a correct replacement for any dual run capacitor matching the 70 MFD / 5 MFD rating with a voltage rating of 450V or lower. If you have your original part number, contact our support team and we will verify compatibility before you order.
Compatibility
This dual run capacitor is a universal replacement compatible with central air conditioners, heat pumps, and condensing units across all major HVAC brands, wherever the original capacitor is rated:
70 MFD (compressor) + 5 MFD (fan motor)
370V, 440V, or 450V (this capacitor's 450V rating exceeds and safely replaces either lower rating)
Round can shape with 3 terminals
Note: The MFD (microfarad) rating must match your original capacitor exactly on both sides — do not substitute a different MFD value for either the compressor or fan side. Voltage rating, on the other hand, can be equal to or higher than the original (450V safely replaces 370V or 440V), but never lower. Can shape (round vs. oval) affects only physical fit inside your unit's electrical compartment, not performance. If you're unsure of your original capacitor's specifications, they're printed directly on its can — contact our support team if you'd like help confirming compatibility.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Danger — Capacitors Store A Dangerous Electrical Charge Shut off power to the outdoor unit at the disconnect box and at the breaker before beginning. A capacitor stores an electrical charge even after power has been disconnected, and that charge can deliver a serious or fatal shock. Before touching any terminal, discharge the capacitor by shorting each pair of terminals together (C-to-Fan, C-to-Herm, and Fan-to-Herm) using an insulated-handle screwdriver, or by using a proper capacitor discharge tool with a resistor. Never short the terminals with a bare metal tool held with your bare hand. If you are not fully comfortable performing a capacitor discharge safely, have a qualified HVAC technician replace this part instead.
⚠️ Photograph The Wiring Before Disconnecting — Match Terminals Exactly Wear work gloves and safety glasses. After confirming the capacitor is fully discharged, photograph the wiring on the old capacitor's terminals before disconnecting anything — dual capacitors are labeled C (Common), Herm or Comp (compressor/hermetic), and Fan, and getting a wire on the wrong terminal can damage the new capacitor or the motor it feeds. Note which terminal each wire came from, or label them individually with tape. Remove the mounting strap or bracket holding the old capacitor in its housing, and disconnect each wire from its terminal. Install the new XPDC70X5-450R in the same mounting position, secure it with the strap or bracket, and reconnect each wire to the matching terminal (C, Herm, and Fan) exactly as labeled. Double-check every connection before restoring power. Restore power at the breaker and disconnect box, and confirm the compressor and fan both start promptly and run smoothly. Tools needed: insulated-handle screwdriver or capacitor discharge tool, nut driver, work gloves, safety glasses.
Frequently Asked Questions
My AC unit hums but won't start. Is this the capacitor?
It's one of the most common causes of exactly that symptom. A run capacitor gives the compressor or fan motor the extra push needed to start turning; without it, the motor can draw power and hum in place without ever actually starting to spin. If you can see the capacitor can and it looks bulged, domed on top, or is leaking a brown oily residue, that's strong visual confirmation of failure.
Can I use a 450V capacitor to replace my old 370V or 440V one?
Yes. Voltage rating is a ceiling, not an exact match requirement — a capacitor rated for a higher voltage than your original will work safely and often lasts longer under the same electrical stress. What you cannot do is go the other direction: never install a capacitor with a lower voltage rating than your original, since that risks premature failure or the capacitor breaking down under normal operating conditions.
Does the round vs. oval shape matter?
Only for physical fit inside your unit's electrical compartment — it has no effect on electrical performance. If your unit's mounting bracket or available space is sized for a round can, use a round capacitor; if it's sized for an oval can, use an oval one. The MFD and voltage ratings are what matter electrically, not the shape.
The fan spins if I give it a push, but won't start on its own. What does that mean?
This is a classic sign of a weak or failing capacitor — it may still have enough charge to keep the motor running once it's already spinning, but not enough to provide the initial starting torque. This is a strong signal to replace the capacitor before it fails completely and leaves you with no cooling at all.
Is this a genuine OEM part?
This is a universal replacement part rather than a brand-specific OEM part. Because dual run capacitors are a standardized component defined by their electrical specifications rather than their manufacturer, this capacitor is a correct replacement for any unit's original capacitor that shares the same 70/5 MFD, 450VAC, round dual run capacitor rating — regardless of which HVAC brand originally installed it.

XPARTCO XPC5-450R Round Motor Run Capacitor (CBB65, 5 MFD, 450V)
The XPARTCO XPC5-450R is a universal single run capacitor for single-phase AC motors. Unlike a dual run capacitor, which combines two capacitors into one can to serve both a compressor and a fan motor, this is a single capacitor with two terminals, sized for one motor circuit. Once a motor has started, this capacitor stays in the circuit continuously, correcting the phase of the current feeding the motor's auxiliary winding, which improves torque, efficiency, and running smoothness. This 5 MFD size is a very common rating for condenser fan motors, but the same CBB65-style capacitor is also widely used on pool pumps, small air compressors, washing machines, and other single-phase motor equipment.
Rated 5 MFD at 450VAC. Like all run capacitors, this one stores an electrical charge even after power is disconnected, and it should always be treated as energized until properly discharged. Over time, the dielectric material inside breaks down from heat and electrical stress, causing the capacitor to lose capacitance or fail outright. A failing run capacitor produces a recognizable symptom set: the motor hums but won't start, runs weakly, overheats, trips a breaker or overload protector, or the capacitor can itself becomes visibly bulged, domed, or leaks oily residue at the top.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO XPC5-450R Round Motor Run Capacitor fixes single-phase motor equipment — condenser fan motors, pool pumps, small compressors, and similar applications — where the motor hums but won't start, runs weakly, overheats, or trips its breaker or overload protector. 5 MFD, 450VAC, round CBB65-style capacitor, 2 terminals. Capacitors store a dangerous electrical charge even after power is disconnected — always discharge before handling.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Motor hums but won't start
Motor runs, but weakly or with reduced torque
Motor runs hot or trips its internal overload protector
Fan or pump won't start on its own but will run if given a manual push
Equipment trips the circuit breaker shortly after starting
Capacitor can visibly bulging, domed on top, or leaking oily residue
Motor that used to start slowly and has now stopped starting altogether

XPC5-450R
This is a universal component rather than a single-manufacturer part, so the specific OEM number your equipment's label references will vary by brand. This capacitor is a correct replacement for any single run capacitor matching the 5 MFD rating with a voltage rating of 450V or lower. If you have your original part number, contact our support team and we will verify compatibility before you order.
Compatibility
This single run capacitor is a universal replacement compatible with single-phase AC motor equipment across all major brands, wherever the original capacitor is rated:
5 MFD
370V, 440V, or 450V (this capacitor's 450V rating exceeds and safely replaces either lower rating)
Round can shape with 2 terminals
Common applications include central air conditioner and heat pump condenser fan motors, pool and spa pumps, small single-phase air compressors, and various single-phase motor equipment.
Note — single run, not dual: This is a single-motor capacitor with 2 terminals, distinct from our dual run capacitors (such as the XPDC80X5-450R and similar listings), which combine two capacitors and 3 terminals to serve both a compressor and a fan motor from one can. If your equipment's original capacitor has 3 terminals labeled C, Herm, and Fan, you need a dual capacitor instead of this single one. The MFD rating must match your original capacitor exactly; voltage rating can be equal to or higher than the original, but never lower. Always verify your original capacitor's specifications, printed on its can, before ordering. Contact our support team if you'd like help confirming compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I need this single capacitor or a dual run capacitor?
Look at your old capacitor's terminals. If it has only 2 terminals serving one motor circuit, this single capacitor is the correct type. If it has 3 terminals labeled C, Herm, and Fan (or similar), it's a dual capacitor serving both a compressor and a fan motor from one can, and you'll need a dual capacitor such as our XPDC-series listings instead. The two types are not interchangeable.
Can I use a 450V capacitor to replace my old 370V or 440V one?
Yes. Voltage rating is a ceiling, not an exact match requirement — a capacitor rated for a higher voltage than your original will work safely and often lasts longer under the same electrical stress. What you cannot do is go the other direction: never install a capacitor with a lower voltage rating than your original, since that risks premature failure or the capacitor breaking down under normal operating conditions.
My fan or pump motor hums but won't start. Is this the capacitor?
It's one of the most common causes of exactly that symptom. A run capacitor gives the motor the extra push needed to start turning; without it working correctly, the motor can draw power and hum in place without ever actually starting to spin. If you can see the capacitor can and it looks bulged, domed on top, or is leaking a brown oily residue, that's strong visual confirmation of failure.
Is this a genuine OEM part?
This is a universal replacement part rather than a brand-specific OEM part. Because run capacitors are a standardized component defined by their electrical specifications rather than their manufacturer, this capacitor is a correct replacement for any equipment's original capacitor that shares the same 5 MFD, 450VAC, round rating — regardless of which brand originally installed it.
