Published current ratings and actual cap ratings may or may not
co exist.? But the fact remains an application may require a cap
with an appropriate capacitor current capability.? I have a
Johnson Valiant as an example.? It had two banks of series silver
mica capacitors in parallel.? (Factory)? One day it gave up the
ghost and I replaced it with just two in series.? Big mistake.? It
blew up.? That was the day I learned about capacitor current
ratings and why Johnson had 4 of them in there instead of one.

LEIGH, When was the last time you ever saw a NPO? ?.01uf?
DISC CERAMIC? ????? ? They don't exist, never did.? ?They are typ? Z5u, z5t?
etc.?
I have never seen RF? current ratings for? disc
ceramics,? ?rf current ratings? vs? freq,? nor? ESR at a
freq.??
