Abstract
A power capacitor with a plurality of section windings stacked within a housing is provided with an interconnection and fusing arrangement in which insulative spacer elements extending from between adjacent sections support a common electrical bus and an insulative locater element. Fuse wires attached to ends of the section windings extend around an edge of the locater element to the bus and are maintained thereby in spaced relation to avoid interaction between neighboring fuses when one clears.
