AC voltage ratings for capacitors

In various circuits intended for use with 230-250 V AC I''ve seen capacitors labelled as "400V" (Examples: 1, 2) When I look at Capacitor specifications, they often give separate AC and DC ratings. For example: X1 440 VAC 1000 VDC X2 350 VAC Y2 400V (but package confusingly marked "Y2 (330V~) X1 (440 V~) ..

6.1.2: Capacitance and Capacitors

Instead, they have maximum voltage ratings. The breakdown strength of the dielectric will set an upper limit on how large of a voltage may be placed across a capacitor before it is damaged. Breakdown strength is measured in volts per unit distance, thus, the closer the plates, the less voltage the capacitor can withstand.

What does the Voltage Rating on a Capacitor Mean?

Take note that a capacitor''s voltage rating is not the voltage that the capacitor will charge up to, but only the maximum amount of voltage that a capacitor should be exposed to and can store safely. For the capacitor …

18.5: Capacitors

In practice, capacitors always have an insulating material between the two plates. The material is chosen to have a higher breakdown voltage than air, so that more charges can be stored before a breakdown occurs. It has also been experimentally observed that the capacitance increases with certain materials, so called "dielectric …

6.1.2: Capacitance and Capacitors

If a circuit contains nothing but a voltage source in parallel with a group of capacitors, the voltage will be the same across all of the capacitors, just as it is in a resistive parallel circuit. If the circuit instead consists of multiple capacitors that are in series with a voltage source, as shown in Figure 8.2.11, the voltage will divide between them in inverse …

Basics of Capacitance

Glass also increases the capacitor''s breakdown voltage considerably, so much higher voltages can be used. The ratio by which the dielectric can increase the charge relative to air is called the ''dielectric constant.'' The measure of the dielectric effect is known as ''permittivity.'' Even a vacuum has permittivity, and the permittivity of a vacuum ...
