The important part is if your original capacitor had one you ll need to replace it on the new capacitor.
Start capacitor with resistor.
Find dry electrolytic nonpolarized start capacitor models in a wide range of sizes and mfd ratings.
Not all start caps use resistors as there are other ways to accomplish the task of reducing residual voltage in a capacitor.
A start capacitor resistor also called a bleed down resistor is used to bleed off residual voltage in a start capacitor after it has removed from a motor circuit after start up.
Copeland electrical handbook p a5 a6.
If damaged or not provided install a new resistor and clean the relay contacts or replace the relay.
When you need motor start and run capacitors shop at grainger.

To eliminate this potential problem there should be a bleed resistor across the terminals of the start capacitor.
The damaged contacts could be caused by the high voltage stored in a start capacitor being discharged across the contacts of a start relay.
Not all start capacitors will use one as there are other ways to accomplish this.
If sticking contacts are encountered on any start relay the first item to check is the start capacitor resistor.
A start capacitor resistor also called a bleed down resistor is used to bleed off residual voltage in a start capacitor after it has removed from a motor circuit after start up.

Round molded cases can protect start capacitors from oil dirt moisture and grease helping prolong maintenance free performance and reduce replacement costs.
The purpose of the resistor is to bleed off residual voltage in the capacitor after it has been disconnected from the circuit after motor start up.
