Capacitor type?
I wonder if anyone can help me identify what type of capacitor is in the pics I attach. I have a bag of them labelled 220/125. I guess this means 220pf as the capacitor measures approximately that on my capacitance meter. Does the 125 indicate a working voltage of 125 volts?
Thanks Peter |

Re: Capacitor type?
Extremely stable caps!!! Made by Ducon towards the end of their reign!!
Australian made. If they havent been overheated you will never replace one. I have a "small" range of them. Joe |
