It is used in the HOT circuit to connect the HD coil to the HOT stage. Common ratings are 2-10uF 250-400Vac and more. The next time you go past a thrown out chassis or TV pick it up ;-). Beware that these are not X2 rated but they should do the job in a hobby circuit and have much higher current ratings than X2 caps. Always use fuses and a thermal fuse too if you want to be safe.
