Hi Folks,

decided to replace all the Electrolytics on a monitor board (Orion
PWB-2022 like http://www.jomac.net.au/Orion%20PWB%202012-PWB2022.jpg)
found in an old arcade machine because a 680uF 200WV (note WV not V)
capacitor was bulging badly.

The replacement I acquired (with some effort)  has markings of 680uF
200V and is about 2/3 the physical size.

Questions:

1. Is 200V =3D 200WV.  Googling appears to indicate they are the same,
that is [V]oltage  =3D [W]orking [V]oltage but the physical size
difference has me concerned.

 2. I assume ceramics, greencaps and caps that look like a
Polypropylene Film Capacitor eg

dont need to be replaced.   They never seem to appear in any cap kit
lists for these types of boards so figure it is just the
electrolytics.

Is this the general consensus.
