Abstract:
1. A method for generating a multiplicity of capacitance values comprising: a. forming a lined housing, wherein the lined housing comprises an insulating layer lining disposed within a housing, wherein the insulating layer covers walls and a first integral bottom of the housing, and wherein the housing comprises an open top; b. connecting a negative wire to each negative terminal of each capacitor of a plurality of capacitors to form a collective connection, wherein the capacitors are located within the lined housing and a space is formed between the insulating layer and the capacitors; c. connecting a positive wire to each positive terminal of each capacitor of the plurality of individual capacitors; d. connecting the collective connection to a thermal fuse, forming a wired bundle; e. disposing the wired bundle within the lined housing; f. flowing a resin into the lined housing to cover the plurality of capacitors of the wired bundle with the resin, which form an expansion chamber in the lined housing; g. disposing the insulating layer on the resin to cover the plurality of capacitors; h. disposing a central common terminal within a cap and concentrically disposing a plurality of auxiliary terminals within the cap around the central common terminal, wherein each auxiliary terminal has at least one blade for engaging an electrical device, and wherein each central common terminal has at least one blade for engaging an electrical device; i. fastening an insulating spider with a tubular section and legs to the cap, wherein the tubular section separates the central common terminal from the plurality of auxiliary terminals, and wherein the legs separate each auxiliary terminal from adjacent auxiliary terminal of the plurality of auxiliary terminals; j. securing an interrupter to the cap opposite the insulating spider to form an insulated cap; k. connecting each positive wire to one auxiliary terminal of the plurality of auxiliary terminals to form an auxiliary frangible connection; l. connecting the thermal fuse to the central common terminal to form a central frangible connection; m. placing an adhesive around a lip of the insulated cap; and n. deforming the lip around the lined housing for non-removably securing the insulated cap to the lined housing to form a bundled capacitor.
