Abstract: A capacitor assembly in which a capacitor is encapsulated by a molding process, with the encapsulation providing a structural securement of the electrical terminals and/or mounting brackets to the capacitor windings, as well as affording a complete sealing of the capacitor assembly. The molding process is carried out after assembly of the components into a cradle or housing which temorarily maintains the electrical terminals and mounting bracket in contact with the capacitor windings. Upon placement of the assembly into an injection mold and closing of the mold, the various components are forced into tight contact by the injection molding process. Upon solidication of the encapsulation material, the various parts are thereby secured together.
