Century 2HP 2-speed motor CAT B2984 230VAC. The capacitor under the top cover is 35+10 uF (it has three terminals). I believe that is the run capacitor. The capacitor under the end cover is 189-227 uF (it has two terminals). I believe that is the start capacitor. I learned that the 35+10 means it has both a 35uF and a 10uF capacitor in one can. So I think there are three capacitors for this motor. Does anybody know why? Works fine, two years old, just curious.
Three capacitors on one pump motor?

- Start date
Motor type CXCP has a start capacitor and a run capacitor for the low speed and a run capacitor for the high speed (permanent split capacitor (PSC)).
