Description
This Elkay capacitor is a 4 f 400V a.c. lighting capacitor that is designed to
assist with the switching of low wattage and LED lighting when using the 2
wire Elkay range of timers and sensors. For example, 2D fittings, energy-
saving bulbs, LEDs or any low power consuming load.
The capacitor can also be used on contactors to assist in the switching of
loads above 16A by connecting the capacitor across the contactors coil A1 & A2
when using the Elkay range of electronic timers. The lighting capacitor should
be fitted at the first light, or point of the load, from the switch. The
capacitor should be fitted at the Switch Live and Neutral (See diagram 1).
There is no polarity on this product.
Note: 400V a.c. capacitors are suitable for all a.c. voltages below 400V.
