There are 2 Mf./1000Volt Polypropylene capacitors that Mouser Electronics sells. I'm using them in sets of two in parallel to get the 4 / 1000V that I need in a Victor Electrola that I'm currently working on.

It's also possible to use seriesed 10 / 450V. Electrolytics with balancing resistors, but that won't do very well if you really need 1000 Volt capacitors.

I don't understand your question about the resistors. Let's kick it around a little more.

Also, are there more than the usual power resistors there, or maybe more with a higher than usual power rating?
