Abstract
A breaker point is supported on an abutment of a breaker plate having an integral post supporting a breaker lever urged toward the abutment by a spring fastened to another abutment. A bridging member connected to the abutments supports the free end of the post. An uncanned capacitor is sealed in a receptacle formed in the breaker plate which is constructed from an electrically insulating material. The capacitor is connected to the spring and the breaker point by conductor straps, plated sections or capacitor leads secured in recesses in the breaker plate with a portion exposed for grounding.
