Electronics experts Question?
I have an "antique" (circa 1950's) Sun Distributor Machine that I am restoring. Had it working but the old capacitor failed and I need a replacement. The item is marked: .3MFD 600 VDC.
I am seeing listings for "modern" capacitors, similar MFD, but ratings of only 200 VDC.
This old machine has a 110V AC plug that drives the rotating motor and also uses (2) D cell batteries. My question to the experts is: do you think I could use a 200 VDC rated capacitor?
I really don't understand where the large DC rating is being utilized?
