ABSTRACT:
A capacitor in which the interruption mechanism includes an actuator that moves in response to a predetermined physical condition to cause electrical disconnection of the capacitive element, and in which the actuator has a range of motion through a limited number of stable positions and is mechanically pre-biased to move toward one of the stable positions when not already in one of the stable positions. In another aspect the capacitor housing includes an integral rim around the terminals that is filled with dielectric resin to insulate the terminals from the space surrounding the capacitor housing.
