Question:

Is suppression capacitor (Volt AC) can be used as motor starting capacitor?

Is suppression capacitor (Volt AC) can be used as motor starting capacitor?

Answer:

I wouldn't try it. Capacitors have a maximum ripple current rating. The EMI cap doesn't have as high a rating as an oil filled motor start capacitor.
