Abstract: An alternating current power capacitor including one or more capacitor bodies (e.g., bobbins) having conductive and dielectric film windings, wherein edges of the conductive film windings define a plane forming at least one capacitor body contact surface, one or more electrodes having one or more electrode contact surfaces and a housing operative to apply compressive force that binds the capacitor body and electrode together so as to maintain uniform electrical and thermal conductive contact throughout a plane parallel to and between the electrode contact surface and capacitor body contact surface.

Abstract: A capacitor—cooling bus mounting system in which a fixing element driven through a fluid coolant passageway in the capacitor into a compatible bore in the bus bar that is also a coolant fluid passageway outlet or inlet provides a continuous fluid pathway for flow of coolant fluid from the cooling bus to and through the capacitor.

Abstract: An AC capacitor including a first electrode with an electrically conductive rod protruding from surface of the first electrode, a second electrode including an opening, a bobbin located between the first and the second electrode the bobbin includes a hollow central section. The axis of the electrically conductive rod protruding from surface of the first electrode is coaxial with axis of the hollow bobbin and the electrically conductive rod passes through the hollow central section of the bobbin and through the opening in the second electrode allowing current flow.
