Abstract: A power capacitor including at least one capacitor element enclosed in a container, wherein the container is of a material which substantially includes a first polymer material. Further, the container is cylindrical and provided in its surface with creepage distance extending protrusions of a second polymer material. The protrusions are formed with respect to their thickness and radial length so as to cool the capacitor. In a method for manufacturing such a power capacitor, a substantially cylindrical container is made of a material which substantially includes a first polymer material. The container is provided on its envelope surface with creepage distance-extending protrusions of a second polymer material and the capacitor elements are encapsulated in the container.

Abstract: A power capacitor for high voltage including at least one capacitor element enclosed in a container, use of a gel in such a capacitor, and a method for manufacture of the capacitor. A space is formed between each capacitor element and the container. The power capacitor can handle problems concerning oil leakage in such a capacitor. In the power capacitor the space is filled up by a dielectric fluid including a gelling component. Because a gel is used instead of oil, the risk of oil leakage is eliminated.
