Beware Rifa Class X Capacitors!
Hi.
I had one of my Ekco TV's running this afternoon, I Had nipped inside for two or three minutes only to see smoke pouring out of the shed. The set was merrily playing away fine.
It seemed to be very hot. After a good half hour I discovered that the nice new old stock X type cap across the mains had blown it is a Rifa rated at 250v ac
