Metallized film capacitors have a so-called self-healing action. That is, when a small part of the electrode is short-circuited due to the weakness of the electrical boundary. The electrode metal around the short circuit part will restore insulation due to the electrostatic energy or short circuit current carried by the capacitor at that time, which will lead to a larger area of melting and evaporation ,so that the capacitor will be restored to the function of the capacitor again.
