My result on a 3-phase power supply with a 3800V AC transformer is a drop to
5162V from 5400VDC at 2.4A load.
The capacitor is just 2µF, no choke input in this one.
That capacitor does the same as a 12µF would do on a single phase power
supply.
I don´t care about the additional 100W I could probably obtain by a larger
capacitor and have no voltage drop across a large glitch resistor.

## Ok, here is how I do it..for the same 5400 vdc NO load B+ supply. I use
a 3818 vac sec xfmr, plus a FWB, and a string of 16 x 2500uf @ 450 vdc caps.
Each cap weighs just 14 oz. Thats a total weight of 224 oz for the caps = 7
lbs. Thats also a total of 156 uf. Ripple is zero. Both static and dynamic
regulation are superb, and second to none. A single 100k @ 3watt mof across
each cap. Total diss = 18 watts for the 16 x eq resistors... and NOT 300W.
In
both cases I just quoted, we are using a single phase, 60 hz plate xfmr. We
are NOT using a 3 phase plate xfmr, with the typ 208-360-480-600 vac input.
