I have a service that has some really old capacitors on the 480V line
and some that are not so old, probably 10-15 yrs. They are different
manufaturers but identical application. The newer ones have failed and
are shorting out. The old ones are hanging on just fine.
Does anyone know what average lifespan of this type a capacitor in an
industrial environment such as a mine could be expected. This of
course would be with normal use and no huge transients etc.
