Ray, We sometimes use motor-run capacitors for bus filters. These are the type that are in metal cans (mounted on earth) and use 1/4" Faston connectors. So far we have not had to make a distinction for wet or dry. Since these are for North American and European applications we use those that are UL/CSA/VDE approved. For example the Seacor, Inc. has a line of Polypropylene capacitors that are oil filled.
