On the Damage to Metallized Film Capacitors Caused by ElectricalDischarges

[摘要] High voltage operation of metallized film capacitors leads to electrical spark breakdown in pockets of gas trappedwithin the sealed capacitor unit. A simple picture of gas discharge processes in the capacitor is used to identify therole played by electric discharges in the deterioration and ultimate failure of capacitors under accelerated life test.
