Mains Suppression caps

Tweakers' Asylum

Tweaks for systems, rooms and Do It Yourself (DIY) help. FAQ.

I have been tweaking my MF PSU V3 & am considering adding a class X2 cap in .47uf from live to neutral. It has been suggested that a class Y2 cap can be added from live to earth & neutral to earth. Can anyone suggest a value to try in this class?
I live in the 240volt part of the world.

Ian

Yes, but you want to bypass with smaller caps. - Al Sekela 13:00:34 01/31/07 (2)
