Claim 12:
13. A capacitor aging apparatus comprising:
a plurality of continuity check pads configured to be electrically connected to a plurality of capacitors, respectively, and to check electrical continuity of the plurality of capacitors;
a plurality of first terminals electrically connected to the plurality of continuity check pads, respectively;
a plurality of second terminals electrically connected to the plurality of first terminals, respectively; and
a plurality of connectors that are each configured to be electrically connected to and disconnected from a first terminal of the plurality of first terminals and a second terminal of the plurality of second terminals,
wherein the plurality of connectors are each configured to electrically connect the respective second terminal corresponding to one capacitor among the plurality of capacitors to the respective first terminal corresponding to another capacitor among the plurality of capacitors, and
wherein, when the plurality of capacitors are subjected to aging, in a state where in order to connect the plurality of connectors in series, each of the plurality of connectors is electrically connected to the respective second terminal and the respective first terminal, and where the plurality of capacitors are electrically connected to the plurality of continuity check pads, a continuity check pad, among the plurality of continuity check pads, located on a first end side of the plurality of connectors connected in series is applied with a voltage, such that the voltage is applied to all of the plurality of capacitors via the plurality of connectors.
