PACITORS
What is a capacitor?
-
Simply, these devices store electricity for use later on. They
can be used to smooth out spikes in a voltage line, or hold up a pulse that is
normally too short. The value of capacitors are rated in Farads.
The vehicle’s b
attery is sometimes referred to as the system’s largest capacitor
due to its ability to store energy and filter out transient spikes and ripples.
