Abstract
A capacitor element ( ) for a power capacitor with a dielectric film layer ( ) and an electrode layet arranged on each flat side of the film layer, which electrode layers are divided into at least three metallized areas ( ), separate from each other, in order to form an inner series connection arranged to conduct a load current, of which thee areas at least one is divided into segments ( ) separated by non-metallized sections ( ), and at least one bridge ( ) arranged to electrically connect two of the segments together. In accordance with the invention the bridge is so arranged that, in the area divided into segments, the load current appears substantially only in the segments. The invention also relates to a power capacitor with such a capacitor element and also a metallized tape for such a power capacitor.
