what capacitors would you recommend me to build a 250nF @ 40kV  MMC? (for 
DC TC powered by 3phase pig) how much (approximately) it will  cost? What 
about shipping to  Lithuania?

Hi Tomaš,
 
    The cost would depend not just on the voltage, but  also how much power 
you will be putting through, as power determines the  peak current your caps 
will have to handle. Since the CD caps run ~$3.30 each,  and you may need 
several hundreds of them, a custom-made cap might be cheaper  than an MMC. I believe 
Dr R. may be the best source for truly large caps.
