If you sure of the value your chart gives the this is what it is, but to me 0.006uF is more likely. 0.05uF is too large, and in case of ungrounded chassis the touch current can be dangerous.

I would make it 10nF safety (Y type) capacitor.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
