AI Thread Summary
To rewire a Frigidaire air conditioning unit with disconnected wiring, it's crucial to have a solid understanding of AC mains electrical wiring. Finding the service manual online can provide essential guidance for proper wiring connections. Concerns about safety highlight the importance of ensuring that the capacitor is indeed faulty before attempting any repairs. A workaround for the capacitor may involve using a temporary substitute, but caution is advised. Proper knowledge and resources are vital for safely addressing the issue.

was given a frigidaire air conditioning unit wiring has all been disconnected before I could look at it and I'm pretty sure the capacitor is bad I want to know how to re hook the wires up and how to make a workaround for the capacitor

Welcome to the PF.

Sounds kind of dangerous. What is your background with AC Mains electrical wiring? Can you find a service manual for the unit online?

Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'

I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...

Thread 'EMF (Electromagnetic Field) & EHS (Electromagnetic Hyper Sensitivity)'

Hello dear reader, a brief introduction: Some 4 years ago someone started developing health related issues, apparently due to exposure to RF & ELF related frequencies and/or fields (Magnetic). This is currently becoming known as EHS. (Electromagnetic hypersensitivity is a claimed sensitivity to electromagnetic fields, to which adverse symptoms are attributed.) She experiences a deep burning sensation throughout her entire body, leaving her in pain and exhausted after a pulse has occurred...
