I have some sight lighting that the cap have gone bad. I am trying to find a good place to get some replacements fast. also wondering if there is any problem substuting this with a different brand of cap.. It is a 24 MFD ( is this the same as 24 MF ) +- 3% 480vac 50/60HZ 105c max case temp Protected-p2 with a bleed resistor inside it is a special high-temp capacitor at the bottom of the capacitor it also says do not substitute. (why do they have that )?? One final question-- With these lights we have had over a 50% failure rate with the capacitors. The only problem I can see is the lights run 24 hrs a day, the photocell comm. is not ready yet, should that matter??
