Hi all,
I bought two capacitors, I said to the shop keeper for 1. 2.2nF and 2. 0.05uF - 400V capacitor
he gave me these :
for 0.05uF - 400V and

for 2.2nF

Now my problem is that I don't know how to read capacitor color codes like resistor ones.
I googled it but found a lot of different ranges ------ confused!!

pls help me reading and verifying the values so that I can build my circuit.

Thanks in advance.
thanks

 

.047μf and 2.4nf
Max.

 

Thanks a lot, but I want to learn how do we find the values?, pls tell me some learning material
Thanks

 

Here's one chart...

Start reading the colours from top to bottom.

 

thanks Dodgydave but according to this chart :
1st 2nd mul tol volt
yello blue red |
4 6 x100 I don't know it is type J, K ,...
= 4600pF
=0.0046uF
not 0.046uF as said by MaxHeadRom
pls help me
thanks

 

Looks like 4.7nf (it's purple, not blue) and 240 pf to me.
