Description
The Tibcon 55+5 MFD Aluminium Round Dual Capacitor is an AC capacitor designed for compatible electrical equipment that requires two capacitance values in a single component. The supplied image clearly shows the Tibcon brand, 55+5 MFD rating, 440 VAC voltage, 50 Hz frequency, and burst-proof marking.
A dual capacitor provides two separate capacitance values for the relevant motor circuits. In compatible air-conditioning systems, these are commonly used for compressor and fan motor circuits. The exact application depends on the equipment’s electrical design and wiring diagram.

What Does 55+5 MFD Mean?
The 55+5 MFD rating represents two capacitance values within one capacitor:
– 55 µF: One capacitance section
– 5 µF: A separate capacitance section
This dual configuration is commonly used in compatible air-conditioning equipment, where different motor circuits require different capacitance values. The terminals must be connected according to the equipment wiring diagram.
Important: A 55+5 MFD dual capacitor is not interchangeable with a single 55 MFD capacitor. Check both capacitance values, voltage rating, terminal layout, and physical dimensions before ordering a replacement.
Applications of the Tibcon 55+5 MFD Capacitor
Depending on the equipment manufacturer’s requirements, a compatible dual capacitor may be used in:
– Air-conditioning systems
– Condenser fan motor circuits
– Compatible compressor and fan assemblies
– HVAC equipment maintenance and repair
– Replacement of matching dual-run capacitors
Always verify that the equipment calls for a 55+5 µF capacitor rated at the appropriate voltage. Higher capacitance or a different terminal configuration can cause equipment malfunction or damage.
Why Choose the Correct Capacitor Rating?
The capacitor must match the equipment’s specified capacitance and electrical requirements. Before replacing an existing unit, check the nameplate, wiring diagram, voltage rating, terminal labels, and physical dimensions. Electrical capacitors can retain a dangerous charge after power is disconnected, so installation should be performed by a qualified technician using proper isolation and discharge procedures.
