OEM Carrier Dual Run Capacitor 30+5 MFD 370V for Model PH1PNA018000AABA

This factory-authorized OEM dual run capacitor is the direct replacement for the Carrier PH1PNA018000AABA and compatible Carrier, Bryant, and Payne systems. Manufactured by GE/Genteq exclusively for Carrier, this capacitor stores and releases the electrical charge required to start and sustain both the compressor and the condenser fan motor simultaneously. When a dual run capacitor fails, symptoms include a loud humming with no motor movement, the condenser fan spinning only when manually assisted, or the system tripping the breaker within seconds of startup.

  • Specs: 30+5 MFD (microfarad) | 370 VAC rated | Round style | 50/60 Hz | Non-PCB dielectric fluid | UL-approved pressure-sensitive current interrupter | Factory ±3% tolerance
  • OEM vs Generic: This is a genuine Carrier/Totaline OEM part (P/N P291-3053RS), manufactured by GE/Genteq to United Technologies reliability standards — tested to 60,000 service hours. Generic aftermarket units often run ±6–10% MFD tolerance, which accelerates motor wear and shortens compressor life. Also cross-references: P291-3053, HC98JA031, HV98JC030, HC98CA031, HC98CA030, GE/Genteq 97F9833 / 27L877.
  • Install difficulty: 2/5 — Always shut off the circuit breaker and discharge the capacitor fully before touching any terminals. Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver, needle-nose pliers, insulated screwdriver, multimeter. Photograph all wiring connections before disconnecting. Average installation time is approximately 54 minutes.
  • Warranty & Shipping: 1-year OEM factory warranty. In stock and ships same business day from our warehouse. Note: capacitor contains liquid dielectric — ground shipment only.

Compatibility: Designed for the Carrier PH1PNA018000AABA and applicable Carrier, Bryant, and Payne split-system condensers and heat pumps specifying a 30+5 MFD 370V round dual run capacitor. A companion single run capacitor P291-1003 is also available for systems requiring a separate run capacitor. Always verify MFD rating and voltage on your unit's data plate before ordering. Our team is available to confirm fitment prior to purchase — just ask.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Capacitor fit my Carrier OEM Carrier Dual Run Capacitor 30+5 MFD 370V — PH1PNA018000AABA?
Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM capacitor for the Carrier OEM Carrier Dual Run Capacitor 30+5 MFD 370V — PH1PNA018000AABA. 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 OEM Carrier Dual Run Capacitor 30+5 MFD 370V — PH1PNA018000AABA?
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?
