ABSTRACT:
A circuit arrangement is disclosed in which a capacitive unit suitable for a.c. operation is connected in series with an a.c. load. An extension of the life of the capacitors can be achieved by having the capacitor unit consist of two capacitors connected in series either on the same side of the consumer or on opposite sides of the consumer, and that a separate rectifier diode is connected in parallel with each capacitor. Both rectifier diodes are connected with its forward direction opposite with relation to each other. This prevents reverse polarity voltage and charge, as well as reduces the duty cycle by fifty percent, thereby polarizing electrolytic capacitor life.
