What does MFD stand for on a furnace label?
microfarads
On a run capacitor what does the MFD stand for?
Farad is the basic unit for capacitance. The MFD is an abbreviation for microfarad, which is one-millionth of a farad. The capacitance of a 50 MFD capacitor is one 50 millionth of a farad.
What does the D stand for in MFD or microfarads?
It's the last letter - MFD is an abbreviation for microfarad - a unit of electrical capacitance named after Michael Faraday.CommentIt's worth pointing out that MFD is completely obsolete. The SI symbol is the Greek letter, mu, followed without a space by an upper-case F.
Will 100 MFD and 80 MFD capacitors work in parallel?
Yes, 100 MFD and 80 MFD capacitors will work in parallel, assuming they have the same voltage rating. The net capacitance will be 180 MFD.
Can you put a 5 mfd in place of a 3 mfd?
Yes, we can replace it
Can a 5 mfd capacitor be used in place of a 7.5 mfd capacitor?
Sometimes. The exception is when the capacitor is used as a "timing" device. But 7.5 mfd and 5 mfd are so large that one would guess that they are not being used as timing devices.

What are mfd ratings?
It is a rating that is used to size capacitors in microfarad. MFD is an acronym for the word microfarad.
Is a 45 5 Uf capacitor the same as a 45 5 mfd?
yes mfd is short for microfarad
In what year did Macquarie First Trust Global - MFD - have its IPO?
Macquarie/First Trust Global (MFD)had its IPO in 2004.
What is the market cap for Macquarie First Trust Global MFD?
As of July 2014, the market cap for Macquarie/First Trust Global (MFD) is $154,623,124.20.
What is happening if use 2.50 mfd as alternate of 3.15 mfd Capacitor in Electric Fan?
That would probably be OK, it might take a little longer to start.
