Numbers to the right of a decimal have less meaning. A zero to the right of .1 makes no difference, .1 is the same as .10 mfd. A .0047 is very close to .005 mfd.

: I am a bit confused on some of the capacitor numbers and feel like a fool. How do you read the numbers such as .1 or .004 etc. Would those numbers be read as .10 and .0047 i am confused. Is their a reference somewhere to reading the capacitor numbers and the decimal points?.I am new to the restoring caps and such but i am very quick to learn electricals and i want to know exactly what i am doing before possibely screwing it up.I have read that you always replace with the same number and voltage and if not available to step up slightly to the next number. I am sure it is just a brain block and once i hear it i will understand it.--Thanks in advance
