Fixed capacitors for use in electronic equipment -- Sectional specification. Fixed metallized polyethylene terephthalate film dielectric d.c. capacitors
IEC 60384-2:2011 applies to fixed capacitors for direct current, with metallized electrodes and polyethylene-terephthalate dielectric for use in electronic equipment. These capacitors may have 'self-healing properties' depending on conditions of use.
They are primarily intended for applications where the a.c. component is small with respect to the rated voltage. Two performance grades of capacitors are covered: Grade 1 for long-life application and Grade 2 for general application.
Capacitors for electromagnetic interference suppression and surface mount fixed metallized polyethylene-terephthalate film dielectric d.c. capacitors are not included, but are covered by IEC 60384-14 and IEC 60384-19 respectively.
This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition published in 2005 and contains the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
