Y2 Safety/Interference Suppression Film Capacitors are specifically made for high voltage AC (alternating current) applications. Y2 safety capacitors can safely be used as line-to ground / line isolation, across the line / line filter capacitors and antenna coupling capacitors in vintage tube electronics. These safety certified capacitors can also improve the performance of your radios/hi-fi's/Amps/TV's due to their NOISE INTERFERENVE SUPPRESSION characteristics. Back when your vintage tube electronics were manufactured there was a lot less noise interference and Y2 safety capacitors had not been invented. You can improve the safety, reliability and performance your tube electronics by replacing your old/original paper line-to-ground / line isolation / line filter capacitors with new safety approved capacitors. If you have not used safety capacitors before, here is a link to ABC's of Line Filter Safety Capacitors.
