I have always heard that if you need a capacitor for AC, you need a X (High-side,) or Y (Low-side) class capacitor. So, I am wanting to stock some 10uF AC caps, for general purposes. I go to Mouser and start to search, but I can't find a way to specify X rated caps. I find Film Capacitors that have an AC and DC voltage rating. I find "Safety Caps," but I don't know what makes them special. I wonder if Safety Caps are the X and Y caps, but I don't see a way to search by X and/or Y perimeters. Bi-Polar caps don't seem to have an AC rating.
I would search this out myself, but I just don't know the terminology to search by. So, where to begin?
If you could make it specific to searching on Mouser, that would be better, because that is where I normal buy components. Please point me in the correct direction...
Thank you very much for your help...
