Hi Terry,

Can you please tell me a part # for the caps you are describing 
because I am not sure what specific details to look for when buying 
the MMC-type caps.
Thanks in advance,

 Robert

Hi Robert,

Why does the voltage have to be so high?

16kV should only need 16 x SQRT(2) = ~23kV

I am thinking a 12 long by 7 wide array of 150nF 2kV caps would work.
That would be 24kV at 95 amps RMS and 3000 amps peak. If the
voltage goes higher buy say 50%, the MMC caps don't care.

Cheers,

Terry
