OK this is super easy if we think about it for a moment, the start cycle of an compressor has the greatest amp draw during the initial moments of engagement to me this means this is the highest side of the three and the goal when ohming a compressor out is the starting side r+c=Strt 1+2+3

then run is usually the next largest ohm ed circuit, number 2 is the run circuit, leaving the lonely com side of the unit left
