Frequently asked questions
Can I use a capacitor with a different capacitance?
Yes, but check the maximum voltage of the circuit.
How can I verify the polarity?
The negative pole is generally marked with a minus sign (-).
I lost a capacitor, can I use one with a different capacitance?
Yes, but check the maximum voltage and the required capacitance.
