This wax paper safety cap. that blew appears to be on the AC side of the circuit. From what I read online electrolytic caps are not supposed to be put in for AC voltage. Also AC and DC voltage ratings for caps. are often different. Finally this wax paper cap. only shows the DC value and not AC value. This cap appears on the schematic as polarized but wax paper caps are not polarized caps. I am very confused yet again.
