Original poster: "Jason by way of Terry Fritz <twftesla-at-qwest-dot-net>" <jasonp-at-btinternet-dot-com> Stacey, For a decent trannie like a 12/30 you need more than 6nF - Id go for around 14 personally. With a 9/30 (270VA) you need between 8 and 10nF, so for 360VA id go for between 12 and 16. Good luck & tell us how you got on!!! Regards, Jason
