I'm ordering parts to recap a model 41-250. Three of the .003 microfarad caps are labeled 1000 VDC. These caps seem to be bypass caps in the plate circuits of the 1st audio tube and the push-pull output tubes.
Do these really need to be 1000 volt caps? I'm just a beginner at this, but I've not run across this before.
Edited to add: I did a quick search and found this topic has been asked and answered before. The caps I have are definately Philco -- probably originals (P/N 30-4469 S.)
I guess this means I'll order the 1000 V replacements....
