Yep, the C and L cancel. But if you're blowing breakers, you've probably
already got trouble simply turning it on. That power-on spike is none too
fun for the circuit with *just* the inductance, let alone the caps (which
look like a short to such transients)!

Would it be better to switch in the caps AFTER turn-on?
