Capacitors

Flame resistance

Electrical equipment; Capacitors

Ability of a material to extinguish a flame once the source of heat is removed.

Flammability

Electrical equipment; Capacitors

Measure of the material's ability to support combustion.

Flashover

Electrical equipment; Capacitors

A disruptive discharge around or over the surface of a solid or liquid insulator.

Frequency

Electrical equipment; Capacitors

The number of complete cycles or vibrations per unit of time. Rate of alternation in an AC current. Expressed in cycles per second or hertz (Hz).

Grounded

Electrical equipment; Capacitors

Parts which are connected so that when the installation is complete, it is substantially of the same potential as the earth.

Ultra broadband capacitor (UBC)

Electrical equipment; Capacitors

A tiny box shaped component that provides ultra-low insertion loss, flat frequency response and an excellent match over multiple octaves of frequency spectrum in a one piece configuration.

Ultracapacitors

Electrical equipment; Capacitors

Also known as supercapacitor, or electrochemical capacitor, or electric double layer capacitor (EDLC). Made from carbon aerogel, carbon nanotubes, or highly porous electrode materials. Extremely high ...
