DESIGN

The capacitors consist of a ceramic disc both sides of which

are silver-plated. Connection leads are made of tinned

copper having a diameter of 0.6 mm or 0.8 mm up to 3 kV

and 0.8 mm for 6 kV.

The capacitors may be supplied with kinked or straight

leads with a lead spacing of 5 mm (0.20"), 7.5 mm (0.30") or

10 mm (0.40") and a lead length from 4 mm to 30 mm. The

standard tolerance on capacitance is 5 % or 10 % for

class 1 capacitors and ± 10 % or ± 20 % for class 2

capacitors.
