Abstract
An article of manufacture (130) for protecting a capacitive power transfer system (100) from electrical breakdowns is disclosed. The article of manufacture comprises a non-conductive layer (210) made of a first type of non-conductive material, and a protection layer (220) made of a second type of non-conductive material, wherein a breakdown voltage of the second type of non-conductive material is higher than a breakdown voltage of the first type of non-conductive material, wherein the protection layer covers only a portion of the non-conductive layer, where in the non-conductive layer and the protection layer form an insulating layer (130) of the capacitive power transfer system.
