A capacitor assembly includes a capacitor having ends. A terminal covers less than an area of one end. A wire bond has opposing ends with one end being coupled to the terminal and is configured to break connection with a circuit when an electrical current through the wire bond reaches a fusing current. An energy storage module includes at least two capacitor assemblies. The wire bond of one capacitor is electrically connected to the second terminal of an adjacent capacitor. An energy storage assembly includes two energy storage modules stacked one on top of the other. A pulse forming network includes conductors and at least two energy storage modules. A method of making a module includes charging each of the capacitors, removing each capacitor that fails, connecting one end of a wire bond to one terminal and connecting the other end to an adjacent capacitor or to a conductor.

The present invention provides a capacitive voltage transformer, including: a capacitive voltage-dividing component and an electromagnetic unit. The capacitive voltage-dividing component comprises: one or more levels of stacks, and each stack is a coupling capacitor. The coupling capacitor includes: an upper cover plate, a lower cover plate, an insulating sleeve, a capacitor core, squirrel cage electrodes, volume matching devices, a high voltage lead, and a low voltage lead. The lowermost coupling capacitor is provided with a medium voltage lead and a lead terminal. The low voltage lead of the lowermost coupling capacitor is led out through a low-voltage leading-out tube arranged in the lead terminal, and the medium voltage lead of the lowermost coupling capacitor is led out through a medium-voltage leading-out post arranged in the lead terminal. The medium-voltage leading-out post passes through and out of the low-voltage leading-out tube and is arranged coaxially with the low-voltage leading-out tube.
