I have come into a bunch of 200 pf capacitors which look like the ones pictured 
as dipped micas in the mouser catalog.  However, they are marked with the value 
followed by the letters EM...does that mean "encapsulated mica" or what is that 
EM all about?  some are also marked with voltages..500 or 1000.  Then there are 
some more, larger, still marked EM.  Are these mica?  Do they carry significant 
amounts of current?  Please, pretty please and thanks.  K4GF,
