Abstract

Abstract Self-protecting capacitor against internal ionization, characterised in that it is coated with a gas-tight plastic material having a thickness such as to maintain constant the pressure due to the evolved gases arising from a damage of the capacitor dielectric material, caused by a start of ionization, and to avoid all contact of its active part with the atmosphere. The equilibrium pressure determines the end of the ionization.
