Hi,
I'm using a 1000uF 16V capacitor in my power supply (12V AC rectified). The voltage on the capacitor terminals is 15.5V.
I'd like to know if the 16V parameter of my capacitor is a stress value, or if it's a nominal value meaning that my capacitor is safe with voltages less or equal than that.
Thanks
