Nope,
When you tye two caps in series you get a voltage rating of VR=V1+V2 and
a capacity rating of CR=(C1*C2)/(C1+C2) if you balance out the voltage by
paralleling resistors across each cap such that the resistance values
R1/(R1+R2) = V1/(V1+V2) and R2/(R1+R2)=V2/(V1+V2). In parallel the Capacity
rating IS additive CR=C1+C2 and the voltage rating is the Minimum Voltage
rating of either Cap.

But doesn't the voltage rating drop to half when you run caps in series

double when you run them in paralell?
Scot
SO, say two 33k resistors in series would equal to 66k resistance?
And two 1000uF capacitors in parallel would equal 2000uF
capacitance??

So:
- Resistors are in series [to gain resistance]
- Capacitors are in parallel [to gain uF]
I really should remember that, but I've only use it maybe once in
23
years [once in my life thus far]

Btw, I forget if that was in series or parallel, it's been a few
months
Always in parallel to add values..............Often, makes a nicer
package
depending on the dimensions......
