Abstract:
Employing capacitors as shunts in a decorative light string can prevent the circuit from being opened when a lamp burns out or becomes loose in the socket. But manually assembling such a light string is costly and the quality of the resulting string is not assured to be high. The present disclosure introduces a shunted light string, and a method of assembling that light string that is able to be automated to ensure a consistent quality level by reducing or eliminating human workmanship issues.

Claim (Index 2):
The light string of  claim 1 , wherein the body of the capacitor is substantially cylindrical and has (i) a substantially flat bottom from which the first wire lead and the second wire lead extend and (ii) a curved sidewall along which the first wire lead and the second wire lead extend.
