audioguru Posted May 6, 2005 Report Share Posted May 6, 2005 Hi Guys,What's going on today?For all my life I have marked the "+" wire on electrolytic caps of schematics and layouts. All my old Philips caps are marked "+" and "-".Now I realize that today's caps are marked with a line of negative signs, "------".Who changed it and why?
