Abstract
A process is provided for producing a wound capacitor in which at least two films of metal coated dielectric material are wound one on the other, the metal layers forming the plates of said capacitor whose instantaneous capacity is measured by means of a bridge. When the capacity measured is close to but slightly less than the desired capacity, partial stripping of the metal from one of the metal coated films is effected, so as to maintain thereon a metal coated strip, connected electrically to the corresponding plate of the capacitor and allowing the value of the desired capacity to be adjusted accurately without slowing down the winding speed of said capacitor.
