What you have there are 'snap ins', which will work in perf-board, or of
course etched circuit boards.
The '3 in an arc' will have one with a 'cross hatch' pattern stamped on
the round part, that is NEGATIVE, and is probably the center one.. The
other two (on either side of it) are probably NO CONNECTION and just
there to support the cap in it's intended mounting. The round metal part
of the prong is smooth. The other, 4th prong will have a PLUS SIGN (+)
stamped on it. That is positive.
Rich's suggesting about how to mount these is perfect - mount them on
the smooth 'top' with dabs of silicon rubber, and then just wire to the
'prongs'.
Have Fun, 73
