anode
Electrical equipment; Capacitors
The electrode through which a direct current enters the liquid, gas, or other discrete part of an electrical circuit; the positively charged pole of an electrochemical cell.
arc
Electrical equipment; Capacitors
Intense luminous discharge formed by the passage of electric current across a space between electrodes.
arcover voltage
Electrical equipment; Capacitors
The minimum voltage required to create an arc between electrodes separated by an insulation under specified conditions. To increase the Arcover Voltage, clean the area between the ...
ballast
Electrical equipment; Capacitors
Device for starting and regulating fluorescent and high intensity discharge lamps.
blocking
Electrical equipment; Capacitors
A situation where Direct Current (DC) is kept from a circuit element due to the high series impedance of a capacitor.
breakdown (puncture)
Electrical equipment; Capacitors
A disruptive discharge through insulation. If plain dielectric films are used, this is usually catastrophic. If metallized films are used, self-healing should maintain the ...
breakdown voltage
Electrical equipment; Capacitors
The voltage at which the insulation between two conductors will break down. This voltage should be at least 50% ~ 100% greater than the capacitor's rated voltage.
