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.
