OK. I'm kind of "visual" guy... sorry for the basic question - I came across multisection cap in an Ampeg B15N that I'm restoring right now. I have already changed bias cap, and one of the 30uf 600v filter caps. The one that is odd is a 3-section capacitor. It's a 40/40/40-500V. I see that each section has its own symbol like triangle, square, etc. They look like they're having common ground (black)?
I need to replace it by three regular caps, as the multisection cans are super expensive.
So, am I thinking right:
#1 40uf /500V (+) goes to yellow and (-) goes to common black ground
#2 40uf /500V (+) goes to red and (-) goes to common black ground
#3 40uf /500V (+) goes to orange and (-) goes to common black ground
