Identifying Capacitors

identifying capacitors

Hi!

I am reverse engineering a product. I need to identify the bipolar capacitors - metallised film capacitors. I need to identify whether they are simple metallised polyester or metallised polypropylene or metallised plastic or double metallised capacitors.

Are there any standards for identifying them from the colour of their encapsulation or the colour of the Box.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

kumar
