Dear Forum:

I found the large capacitor from my ATEA 50 that got tore up, and wondered if anyone else could tell me what the date code is on it, please?

I've attached a photo to my post of it; if any Forum member can
decipher it, or give a best guess, I will thank you.

BTW: I saw mention of how Siemens and Halske coding worked, so I wondered if there are similarites with ATEA's or BTMC's coding system.

L is the 12th letter of the alphabet.
Maybe December?
Just Guessing,

"L" has also been used for other things such as "inductor" and "coil."
