A capacitor is provided with a case having a receptacle with an expandable section that allows the receptacle to extend axially when internal pressure builds within the case as a result of a fault. Terminals are mounted on the cover and electrically connected to the electrodes of a capacitor element through an interrupter plate, via leads. The plate is attached to the section of the case that extends under pressure, whereby the plate is drawn away from the cover, thereby breaking the electrical connections to the terminal. The plate may also work in conjunction with a cover that expands outward in response to internal pressure, to provide a second pressure interrupter mechanism.

A housing part for an electrical storage installation includes: a main body including a through-opening, which includes a side; a fixing material; a first connector terminal assembly including a connector pin which is routed through the through-opening and, by way of the fixing material, is fixed so as to be electrically isolated in the through-opening, the connector pin including a projecting part which on the side projects beyond the through-opening; an insulation material; and a terminal pad on the side, the terminal pad including an opening, the projecting part engaging in the opening and being electrically connected to the terminal pad, the pad by way of the insulation material being fastened so as to be electrically isolated on the main body.

A method for producing a film capacitor, the method including a sealing material supplying step of supplying a curable sealing material 30a to an element accommodating space 20a in which a film capacitor element 10 having a rolled body 12 is accommodated; and a curing step of curing the sealing material 30a in a state in which the rolled body 12 is embedded in the sealing material 30a, in which at the time of initiating the sealing material supplying step, the rolled body 12 is not fixed by the sealing material 30a, and in the sealing material supplying step, the sealing material 30a is supplied to the element accommodating space 20a without curing the sealing material 30a, from the beginning of the supply of the sealing material 30a to the element accommodating space 20a until the rolled body 12 is embedded in the sealing material 30a.

In various examples, a feedthrough seal apparatus is configured to seal an opening in a device. The device includes a case surrounding an interior space, the case including the opening therein to allow access to the interior space from an exterior of the case. The feedthrough seal apparatus includes a plug disposed within the opening of the case. The plug is formed from at least one of a polymeric material and an adhesive material. The lead wire extends through the plug, such that a first end of the lead wire is disposed within the interior space of the case and a second end extends from the plug to the exterior of the case. The plug is configured to electrically insulate the lead wire from the case. Some examples include a method of making the feedthrough seal apparatus.

A capacitor assembly and a method of assembling a capacitor assembly are provided. The capacitor assembly has at least two capacitor stacks, which have a layer structure including a top layer and a bottom layer. A support assembly supports the capacitor stacks.
