ABSTRACT:
A capacitor in which at least one of two dielectrically-insulated metal layers is interrupted along its length by a plurality of transverse non-conductive gaps extending partway across the layer, thereby dividing the layer into a series of conductive sections each conductive section being connected to an adjacent section by a narrow metallized region that extends between the associated gap and one edge of the layer; the narrow metallized regions is adapted to act as a fuse for the section during periods of excessive current flow to the section.
