Don't use the 400v caps,if the initial startup is 500 volts.Use the 600v K40s.Paul said the initial voltage is 500v so you definitely want to use a 600v cap. If it was the FT-2 200v rated teflons,500v would be no sweat for those but 500v startup and 400v operating makes me very nervous for a 400v cap.
