In Reply to: Auricaps instead of Y-rated AC caps? posted by Michael Amster on June 28, 2004 at 17:56:09:
My concern also; I'd try talking with the engineering/app's dept's of some major manufacturers (Sprague? Mallory?). Love to see the UL spec or guide card on AC rated caps, but: UL, though somewhat "non-profit" and god bless 'em for being there, doesn't give away much of anything for free, except for the excellent wire & cable marking guide. Phone contact is a labyrinth from hell. In fact the UL organization is a rabbit maze, with their focus being 95% manufacturer, and 5% consumer, IMO. That's why you pay to get listed. That's why cheaper HP printers use wall warts.If the builder of this project is who I think it may be, he has serious daytime credentials in the electrical biz, and shudders, as do I, at the revuers and homeowners installing "dedicated" circuits, floating grounds, installing "dedicated" ground rods.
I wouldn't on a bet, give-away the scheme for the device, unless and until I had a liabilty lawyer put a full, engineered disclamer of liabilty on the drawing. Then I'd sell it for at least $50 a copy...
Beauftiful job and engineering; expected nothing less from an (assumed) IBEW crafstman.
