so im working on the mmc bank for my tesla coil. my bank needs to be 8.6nF @ ~37kv.. these caps seem to be the ones everyone is using:
MMC Capacitor - Cornell-Dubilier CDE 942C20P15K-F
im a little confused, looking for some clarification. they are rated for 2000vdc and the data sheet says 500vac. do i use the ac rating? if so i need well over 60 caps. they arent cheap.
one more question. the terry filter im working on from the attached pic, uses caps too. we are working with ac here, but the digikey part number says they are only dc rating. they dont even have a ac rating. will these still work? ty
im using a 15kv nst. peak is 21210v. i want a higher rating so nothing burns or pops.
