MMC lead length and bends...

Hello Group,

Has anyone ever taken in account the capacitor 
lead length and bends in a LARGE mmc >300 .15uf 
caps. If it is a non issue how are you assembling 
the mmc short leads 3/8 spacing? I was going to 
put a glass bead on both ends of the cap, pass it 
through a lexan plate and solder the resistor on 
the other side. And make the connection to the 
next cap with a soldered butt splice. The leads 
are making 2 right turns? 18 rows of 22 each 
string .12uf total, 44KV. That is lot of tiny inductors this method, yes?
Furthermore, inductors in series are 
additive-probably wholly due to the inverse 
square law. Anyone have any ideas on this issue? 
Or measured their MMC inductance? Iâ??ll bet its 
a lot more then cumulative inductance of the caps 
only. Someone please tell me Iâ??m fussing over 
nothing; especially if itâ??s true â?º

Best regards,
