If you have the budget, you may consider to invest in the high end
capacitor tester such as the SENCORE meter LC102 OR LC103, these
meters have the capabilities of measuring any type of capacitors with four
tests;
-measure capacitor values
-checking for leakage
-equivalent series resistance (ESR) and
-Dielectric absorption
It can test aluminum electrolytic capacitor, film capacitor, ceramic,
high voltage capacitor and etc. It also has the function to check
inductors or coils too. A capacitor failure when under load is very rare.
Using ESR capacitor meter alone can solve most of the electrolytic
capacitor problem.
