RE: Safety!

The capacitor leads of the Wima MP3-X2 are not a large gauge conductor to begin with (approx 20 AWG?), and the Wima MP3-X2 is a safety cap designed to bear the brunt of a catastrophic AC event, so Al Sekala did not provide unsafe AC advice, IMHO. That said, I would not use any conductor smaller than 18 AWG hookup wire for any AC application, even for a circuit in series like your noise filter project. just my 2 cents
