maybe changing the wire colour has worked some magic ;-)

We are still missing one measurement 🙂
I asked you to measure straight across each capacitor legs, that´s two, and you added as a bonus voltage across the full string, not bad but again, not what I asked.
Hint: voltage across one capacitor legs is what blows it.
PS: if at all possible, place both test probes straight across each capacitor terminal strips, very easy to do and reassuring.
Clamping to wires who twist all over the place and at moments disappear behind others is not reassuring, specially considering past accidents.

Thanks and many thanks to everyone else who contributed, however I still do not understand where I got the original measurement from!
I suggest you measured 69VC across the transformer secondary, just as the moderator guessed when the thread was split.
It would have helped if you hadn't taken a week to measure across the capacitors, which you were asked to do in #18, #27, and #43.

'Having a life' didn't stop you trying all sorts of other things, including blowing up a $50 capacitor. All of this could have been avoided.
It really baffles me why people post questions on the Internet when they're not interested in the answers.
