PACO C-25 in-circuit capacitor tester

Front Panel This is an interesting and useful piece of test equipment that can test a capacitor for being open circuit or short circuit while it is still connected to other components.

It can even measure the value of larger capacitors, over the range of 2-400 microfarads.

An unusual feature of this circuit is that the HT supply is raw a/c!
