RE: ac moters
starting capacitors (sometimes located in a case mounted on the motor)
surge caps (usually in terminal box)
partial discharge sensing caps (usually in terminal box)
switched power factor correction caps (usually in switchgear).
I'm guessing you're talking about small single phase motors and it is a starting cap.
