Subject: Series-linked Microwave caps? any good?
Hi, thanks to all the people on this list who have helped me so far, as
you can see I am still asking questions....:^)
I have a number of Capacitors from microwave transformers laying around
and I was wondering whether or not I can series link these for Tesla
use....
My theory is that if each one is rated at 2100vAC eff and have a value
of around 0.95uF then I should be able to run 10 of them in series for a
capacitor rated at 21000vAC @ 0.095uF which sounds quite reasonable....
any comments?
PS I hear that these caps have a resistor built in (to drain off the
charge maybe?) would this make them unsuitable? can i remove the
resitor?
Matt.
