OEM Carrier Start Capacitor 88-108 MFD 330V for Model PH13NR024000AEAA

This is the genuine OEM start capacitor (part number P281-8806) factory-specified for the Carrier PH13NR024000AEAA heat pump. The start capacitor delivers the high-torque electrical boost the compressor needs to start each cooling or heating cycle. When this component fails, the compressor cannot overcome its own inertia — you may hear a clicking or humming noise as the system attempts to start, followed by a tripped breaker or thermal lockout. Replacing it promptly prevents permanent compressor damage and restores full system operation.

  • Specs: 88–108 MFD (microfarad) | 330V rated | 2.06" diameter × 4.37" length | Round case | Includes integrated bleed resistor for safe discharge
  • OEM vs Generic: This OEM unit is manufactured to Carrier's exact ±5% MFD tolerance. Off-brand start capacitors with loose tolerances can under-deliver starting torque, stressing the compressor windings and shortening equipment life.
  • Install difficulty: 2/5 — Always discharge the capacitor fully before handling any terminals. Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver, insulated needle-nose pliers, and a multimeter for verification. Photograph all wiring connections before removal.
  • Warranty: 1-year OEM manufacturer warranty. Ships same business day from our stocked warehouse — order by 3PM local time.

Compatibility: Designed as a direct factory replacement for Carrier model PH13NR024000AEAA heat pumps. Always verify MFD range and voltage rating against the data plate on your unit before ordering. Cross-references include HC95DD088, HC95DE088, 38GK52747D1, 301023-101, and 300749-101. Our fitment specialists are available to confirm compatibility before you purchase.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Capacitor fit my Carrier PH13NR024000AEAA?
Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM capacitor for the Carrier PH13NR024000AEAA. It is a direct drop-in replacement that fits without modification. Always verify the model number on your equipment nameplate before ordering.
How do I replace the capacitor on my Carrier PH13NR024000AEAA?
Difficulty: Easy (20–30 min)
Step 1: Turn off power at breaker. Step 2: Open condensing unit panel. Step 3: Photograph the old capacitor wiring (Common/Herm/Fan). Step 4: Discharge old capacitor with insulated screwdriver. Step 5: Disconnect and remove old capacitor. Step 6: Mount new capacitor, reconnect wires to matching terminals. Step 7: Close panel, restore power, test. Tools: screwdriver, needle-nose pliers.
My AC hums but won’t start. What part do I need?
An AC that hums but won’t start is the classic symptom of a failed capacitor. The capacitor provides the electrical boost to start the compressor. When it fails, you hear humming but the motor can’t overcome inertia. Other symptoms: fan spinning slowly, AC cycling on/off rapidly, or a visibly swollen capacitor. Fix: replace capacitor ($15–$80 DIY, 30 min).
Is this capacitor compatible with Bryant or Payne too?
Many Carrier parts are cross-compatible with Bryant and Payne since all three brands are manufactured by Carrier Global Corporation. The same physical part is often used across brand labels with different model numbers. To verify: check your Bryant or Payne equipment service manual for cross-compatible part numbers, or email info@nationalhvacparts.com with your model number.
Should I use OEM or aftermarket for my Carrier capacitor?
OEM strongly recommended. OEM capacitors have ±6% MFD tolerance vs aftermarket ±10%. The looser tolerance causes motor winding stress, higher temps, and shorter compressor life. Price difference is only $10–$20 — OEM is the clear value choice.
How fast does National HVAC Parts ship?
