Default R1155 Multi Section Capacitors

Rod,

if you set still has the original tubular multi-section decoupling capacitors, examinre the wirires leading in through the mounting bush carefully, the early types have rubber wiring which tends to decompose and short out. They can sometimes be repaired by slipping sleeving over the wires. It also possible to rebuild them using modern polypropylene types.

Jim.

Just to let you know that we have a few of these capacitors in stock now. They are fully refurbished within their original can. If you have any defective ones you can send them along and have them repaired. Take a look at the http://www.g4cvu.co.uk website for more info.
