Abstract: A service mountable non-polar capacitor assembly is disclosed. The assembly includes a pair of polar tantalum capacitors disposed in axial alignment the anode rods of the capacitors being mechanically and electrically connected as by welding. An insulating sleeve encompasses the body portions of the capacitors leaving projecting portions extending beyond the ends of the sleeve. The void space within the sleeve between the opposed ends of the capacitors may be filled by a polymeric insulating and rigidifying material.

Abstract: A quadriplanar capacitor and the method of forming it is disclosed. A capacitor element is disposed within an open ended enclosure and sealed therein, the enclosure forming one capacitor electrode. The open end of the enclosure forms a quadrilateral. A flat electrode member forming the second capacitor electrode is fixedly attached to a lead which itself is rigidly attached to the capacitor element. The flat member is disposed parallel to the enclosure opening and spaced from the enclosure by the lead. The flat member is substantially coextensive with the enclosure opening.
