The PHILCO Phorum

I've begun a Philco 60B (version 6) and will eventually get to the 4 capacitors embedded in the Filter Condenser Bank (#30-4013/30-4217).

There are 4 caps in the can and the test voltages listed at https://www.philcorepairbench.com/metal-...ondensers/ are rather high:

.05    2000v
.09    1200v
.09    1200v
.5      2000v

Not sure if those voltage ratings are AC or DC.  I have the usual 630v film capacitors on hand, but will they be adequate?  The wires coming out of the Filter Bank assembly look to be 20 gauge or smaller - not what I'd expect for a circuit that needs to accommodate 2000 volts.

I'm also planning to replace the .09 uf caps with .1 uf. 

Comments?  Suggestions?  Thank you, in advance, for your help.

630 volt capacitors will be just fine. The voltage on those caps doesn't come close to 630. .09 is no longer a standard value, .1 will be fine also. Capacitor voltage rating is always DC unless specifically marked AC.

Got it. Thank you Steve!
