Magnan Audio is not recommending even x type safety caps across ac line, white to black. The are also recommending non Y2 caps from neutral to ground which is a know hazard in the rare event that could cause a fire. Tweakeng and Jon are correct. Now across the ac one can use any amount of x safety caps designed for this purpose up until the circuit breaker is triped. I have used over 300 uf for years of x caps. So 40 uf is not the limit. There is a formula for how much current is drawn. Tweaker
