Electrolytic Capacitors for Tesla coil power supply ...

["Tesla list" <tesla-at-pupman-dot-com>]

Dear forum members,

Power supply for my tesla coil setup would be like :
230V AC rectified using bridge rectifier, followed by 4700uF electrolytic
capacitors connected across the rectified DC and GND.
I would like to know how big (KVA rating?) the capacitor should be.
The current drawn by the inverter+Tesla coil primary would be 15 Amps.
I'm planning to use the capacitor to filter the noise produced by the tesla
coil inverter.
Please help.

Thanks and regards,
Raj.
