I was given three capacitors today by the operator of a local ham radio shop.
 They are large and heavy, about 40-50 lbs.  The dimentions are 5"x13.5"x13".
 The nameplate had this info:

General Electric
MU-F = 3
CAT. = 14F15
V = 12500
CY = DC

I assume they are 3uF-at-12.5KVDC?  Does anyone have a spec sheet on this cap?
 If so, are they a power factor correction type cap used in distribution with
a internal bleed resistor?  Are they oil filled and if so is it PBC (they
look old)?

Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions.
