What Happens when the Gauge Y Capacitor Fails(II)

If the Gauge Y capacitor is broken down on the PCB board. There are only two possibilities, one is thermal breakdown, the other is electric breakdown. No matter which way the capacitor is broken down, it is judged to be the failure of the capacitor: no conduction, no electricity. Because the internal structure of the chip has been destroyed, the edge is broken, the two ends of the sub-into a broken state. The appearance of the capacitor is generally no damage, the more serious case is the surface of the amphibious capacitor coating material has a breakdown traces of black. Therefore, after the failure of the safety gauge Y capacitor, it will only have no power, no fire, and no impact on the safety of the user.

To ensure safe use. Pay attention to working voltage, working environment and working time when using, strictly follow GB standard or IEC standard. It is suggested that safety gauge Y capacitor be used together with X capacitor to withstand voltage and strengthen insulation. There are two kinds of possibility of breakdown on PCB board, one is thermal breakdown, the other is electric breakdown, which is determined to be capacitor failure, no electricity, no fire and no impact on the safety of the user.
