There is no precice reason why 4,700pf can be seen used on a lot os SMPS. This value is certainly used in volume, on a worldwide basis, and as such good low cost part price can be realized. 4,700pf is a good compromise between keeping the leakage current down whilst having a reasonable...
Oops - spotted the typo 20pcs should read 10 pcs
In SMPS input filtering, there are Safety Class Y capacitors installed from both the live and neurtal terminals. There is a leakage current flow from the live-to-earth (also from the neutral-to-earth). The magnitude of which can be calculated...

The wire gauge and switch gear are all rated to handle this level of load. However, I do not know of a permissible level of unbalance. Is there a standard or rule (I've heard of a 10% figure, but am unaware of where this comes from)
Is there a USA or European standard to be followed in order to prevent an unbalance of current in a building installation?
I have a "lot" of signle phase electrical computer equipment to connect to a 220VAC/240VAC utility supply. Each device consumes 300W of input power and I need to...
