OK I will comment I believe the bridges intention is to allow either a plus or minus dc system with respect to ground. Clever. However the cap jus past it looks pretty beefy and then there is an additional one beyond that so looks like ac is a possibility. Check the diode bridge specs though to insure a reasonable PIV Regards Paul WB8TSL
