It includes various electrical components containing capacitors. Household circuits that include capacitors. A problem encountered in these devices is that environmental conditions negatively affect the capacitor's operation. This is the effect of drying in this direction. For example, in clothes dryers, the air becomes moist as a result of drying. Condensing as liquid droplets, it settles on the capacitor's terminals. can be collected. In addition, dust from the environment adheres to the wet surfaces of the connection terminals. This can cause the capacitor to short circuit, which in turn leads to capacitor failure. and can even cause operational and safety problems such as ignition. This 15 Therefore, manufacturers offer a variety of capacitors that include housings to provide insulation for the capacitor. They are developing capacitor systems. Capacitor systems used in known technology generally consist of: structured in the form of a shell surrounding the capacitor, with a connector on it. housings that contain openings allowing the passage of connected socket cables These openings, however narrow they may be made, allow some moisture and dust to enter. Moisture, air, and dust can enter the enclosure, allowing access to the electrical connection area. It significantly reduces the effectiveness of the insulation.
