0.00011 mf caps in bakelite blocks
#11

(12-09-2014, 05:19 PM)Kestas Wrote:  I'm working on my model 116.  What is the concensus?  Are these 0.00011 mf capacitors replaced during restoration?  On one hand, that value suggests they're mica, which is usually left alone.  But on the other hand, why would these capacitors be potted in tar?  This suggests they are subject to degradation over time.

Hi guys, I have run into the same bakelite block in my 38-2 as Kestas.Just a question would 0.0002 @ 630V be to much to use in place of the 0.00011? I have these on hand,but if I have to I will order the correct replacements.
Thanks
