Voltage rating of these caps pls?

The 10nF ones are marked:
A100 103K C9727

The 1uF ones are marked:
A1C 105M

I’d be interested in the manufacturer too if anyone can help

Thank you

I have some identical ones here (black cased) that are 63V rated

Thanks Chris, that’s great.

To be clear, is that for both types?

Cheers!

I'm pretty sure the 103's are 100V types. I have seen these before used in mil spec gear in circuits running over 50V.

As for the 105's anybody's guess. For something like those I wouldn't push them over 50v. Though the A1C might indicate 100v, but unless a reference could be found, I'd not risk it. The 1 could be a multiplier and the C 100.

I would have to double check, but I have fairly similar types which appear to be 100V DC but only 63V AC (which sounds sensible considering peak to peak).

This is an AVX MR061C103KTA 0.3" square 0.2" pitch which looks very similar to your first cap. (10n 100v 10% X7R)
Catalog is here, details on page 32.

Your second looks like an AVX SR series but the marking doesn't make sense to me.
If I had to guess I'd say A for AVX, 1 for 100V, C for X7R (although Z5U is more usual for 1uF).
Warm the cap up to around 60C, if the capacity drops like a stone it's Z5U.
