Default Re: Marconi 2024 SGen SMPS faulty

Primary side caps don't need good ESR, they only handle 100Hz, although these seem to suffer far less than the secondary. The switch side ones are different - best to try and match the original spec of the ones you take out, if you can find the spec. Usually somewhat lower ESR (than original) is OK ...
