A small high voltage rated capacitor is often used over a mains power switch with the intention to reduce the spark which might occur within the switch, particularly when switching off the unit. The intention is to reduce stress on the switch's contacts and to reduce impairments on the mains distribution.
Most modern devices, however, are permanently under power. When 'off,' they draw a small amount of power to sustain vital functions such as sensing of an electronic on/off switch and monitoring the infra red receiver required to turn on the unit using a remote control. On/off switches designed in this manner do not incur the spark mentioned above, and their surrounding circuitry is generally designed differently.

Can you replace a 470uf 10v capacitor with a 470 25v 105c high temp radial leads capacitor for a digital tv converter box?
Yes, as long as there is room to mount the larger capacitor. A better replacement might be a 470uF 16v capacitor, which should be smaller than the 25v cap. If necessary, insulating tubing can be put on the leads & the cap can be mounted off the board, or at an angle to the board. Remember to observe polarity when connecting the capacitor leads to the board. Note the orientation & markings on the old capacitor before unsoldering it.
