Can anyone shed any light on what this cap is

Its in a TE groove+, if that helps

Show a picture from a little bit further away so we can get a context. How big is it? Looks like a surface mount part, but 475 volts is throwing me. Could it be a 4.7 ufd tantalum?

1. The look
2. 475 = 47pF x 10^5 = 4 700 000pF = 4.7µF
