So I have a RPC that right now I must manually shut off the start capacitor when I start it. The problem is when I shut it off the switch arcs a LOT. Like spark flies, IT'S ALIVE!!! kind of spark.
I want to use a timer and a contactor, but I am concerned about the contactor arcing and being welded shut, which is a disaster.
This is why I haven't done such an upgrade because I'm very concerned about this.
Is there a safer way I can automate the shutting off of the start capacitor?
