Re: capacitors in series - pitfalls?
Its always a good idea to bridge each cap in a series network with a very high value resistor, It of course will depend on what and where the cap is doing. I would beware though doing this to a coupling cap in valve circuits.
In other circuits where the voltage is between 200 - 500v about 6.8 meg per cap.
