A quick question about WV rating on a Capacitor

Hey, recently I completed a video
where I recapped my LC475. Not shown in that video, is that I also recapped its power supply. To do this I have used this guide image, which shows the various caps and their ratings


The very large cap, shows a rating of 180uF 400wv, I have read that wv is WORKING VOLTAGE, which appears to be a maximum sustained voltage it can handle. That asside, if I were to replace this cap, what V value would I need to use, also 400v?
 
I came across a cap labelled as such in the PowerBook 1400/3400 series 45W AC adapter, and having looked up the meaning of WV I understood it effectively means the same as V.

Thanks for the info, wondering, has anyone else come across this WV rather than V rating on a cap?
