Here is a new question/comment that is sure to stir up some responses. It
seems that many use the term Y to refer to caps from line-to-line and the term
X to refer to caps from line-to-ground (or is it the other way 'round). While
researching caps I found that X basically designates a cap which is designed
to never fail shorted. This would be the one to use for line-to-ground
applications. And that Y refers to a cap which can fail shorted. This would be
acceptable for line-to-line.

Thanks to all for the input on my hipot question. That cleared things up for
me.
