ABSTRACT:
An improved metallized film capacitor configured for surface mounting to a substrate, which capacitor has a capacitive structure electrically terminated at a first end by a first electrical termination and electrically terminated at a second end by a second electrical termination and has at least one lateral face intermediate the first and second ends. The improvement comprises extension of each of the first and second electrical terminations from their respective ends onto the at least one lateral face of the capacitor and in that extension providing sufficient thickness to the electrical termination extensions to establish a gap between the at least one lateral face and a substrate when the capacitor is surface mounted to the substrate by the electrical terminations, the gap being sufficient to facilitate cleaning contaminants from between the lateral face of the capacitor and the substrate after the capacitor is mounted to the substrate.
