Thread Starter Mark Flint Joined Jun 11, 2017 129 Jan 25, 2021 #1 When I look at AC capacitors it's not clear to me if they are specified RMS, peak, or p--p. I'm thinking particularly of the motor run/start capacitors at around 370v, and others at 450v. Is this usually referring to RMS voltage? Thanks
