Home Tube DIY Asylum

Do It Yourself (DIY) paradise for tube and SET project builders.

Oops, seems I'm going to have to modify my statement.

IF and only if you KNOW that the AC rating is RMS, yes, then you can use 2.8 as the multiplier. Seems I found out some AC-rated caps are rated with peak AC Voltage.

I guess if you want to be conservative, use 1.4.

But I'm not removing those 440VAC MRs from those 805 SETs. :-)
