Thanks Chuck for the explanation,
The ones I replaced though were only .003uf /1000v and weren't really a large size cap for the value.

I didn't have the equipment to make an actual test of the voltages present in a high spike situation, so I replaced them with the original rating as I had a couple in "stock".

Thanks,
Gary
