What is a capacitor color code?

Capacitor Color Codes for Identification Chart Capacitors may be marked with 4 or more colored bands or dots. The colors encode the first and second most significant digits of the value, and the third color the decimal multiplier in picofarads. Additional bands have meanings which may vary from one type to another.

What are the color bands of capacitance?

In the following tables, the first three color bands show the value of capacitance, the fourth band as tolerance in percentage and the fifth band shows the temperature coefficient. For example: 1st Color Band = First Number of Value of Capacitor. 2nd Color Band = Second Number of value of Capacitor.

How to determine capacitance of a capacitor using colour coding system?

Using this international colour coding system the user can determine the value of capacitance of the capacitor including the tolerances. In this colour coding system the colour bands are used to determine the capacitance value. Table bellow shows the colour bands to determine the value of the capacitor.

What does a capacitor with a band mean?

Additional bands have meanings which may vary from one type to another. Low-tolerance capacitors may begin with the first 3 (rather than 2) digits of the value. It is usually, but not always, possible to work out what scheme is used by the particular colors used. Cylindrical capacitors marked with bands may look like resistors.

What are the color codes for non polarized mica molded and polyester capacitors?

Color codes for non-polarized mica molded and polyester capacitors like ceramic and disc capacitors are an old school method (BS-EN 60062) and hence replaced by the capacitor marking ( BS-1852 Standard) with alphanumeric codes.

What does a black band on a ceramic capacitor mean?

Extra bands on ceramic capacitors will identify the voltage rating class and temperature coefficient characteristics. A broad black band was applied to some tubular paper capacitors to indicate the end that had the outer electrode; this allowed this end to be connected to chassis ground to provide some shielding against hum and noise pickup.
