The bad cap scourge has made it to some fluorescent fixtures here.
Have been through it with LCD monitors and some TV gear. :-(

Anyway this is a capacitor question. Google not very clear.

CD268 and 40/105/21 come up in searches but I can't find a place where it i=
s defined.

"The usability of components in various climates is defined by the climatic=
 category according to IEC 60068-1, annex A. It is made up of three paramet=
ers separated by slashes. These parameters represent the stress temperature=
 for the tests with cold, with dry heat and with the duration in days of th=
e stress with steady-state damp heat."

A quick look through a couple drawers of caps and I don't see any this mark=
ing. Hmmmmm

thanks
