Hello! I am having an issue with my home setup. What does an AC capacitor do and why does it fail? What is causing this?
👨🔧 Expert (Sama Electec Electrician)
Hi! It stores starting voltage; fails due to summer heat and voltage spikes. This is a very common issue in Dubai homes.
👤 User (Dubai Resident)
Oh, that explains it. Is there any way I can prevent this from happening again in the future?

Regular servicing twice a year is the best prevention. For example, keeping elements dust-free and checking electrical terminals stops wear and tear.
