ABSTRACT:
A motor having a capacitor in series with its coil permits the motor to operate at a higher voltage or range of voltages over its design voltage. A method determines the correct value of a capacitor to change the design voltage of a motor to a different operating voltage. A receptacle can be used to receive capacitors of different values to vary the operating voltage of a motor. The receptacle is provided with a capacitor holding device which is marked with the operating voltage set by the capacitor. A timer clock has a motor of a design voltage which can be changed to a plurality of operating voltages. The timer clock can have the receptacle accessible from the exterior with a cover having the operating voltage marked thereon.
