A capacitor assembly and a method of making the capacitor assembly. The capacitor assembly includes: a power cable including first and second electrical conductors; a motor cable including first, second, and third electrical conductors, the first electrical conductor of the motor cable electrically connected to the first electrical conductor of the power cable, and the second electrical conductor of the motor cable electrically connected to the second electrical conductor of the power cable; a capacitor connected to the first electrical conductors and to the third electrical conductor; and a cover enclosing the capacitor, ends of the first conductors of the power cable and the motor cable connected to the capacitor, and an end of the third conductor connected to the capacitor, the first connection, and the second connection, and wherein after installation the capacitor assembly has an arcuate shape with a concave surface facing the pipe.

In lead capacitor

A pumping system and method for operating a pumping system including a motor coupled to a variable speed drive to drive a pump. A torque indicator corresponding to the torque presented to the drive is determined. The torque indicator may be used to detect a fault if it exceeds a baseline torque, or to detect a defective transducer, or to detect a system change by perturbing one parameter and comparing another to a predicted value.
