today's X bypass filter caps are rated 275VAC and this is plenty, and my Y caps are 300V.
X and Y ratings are more important than AC volts as long as the volts are adequate for MAINs voltage. Different technology, different safety standards.
They did not call those 1200V caps in Y filters "death caps" for nothing.
