Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim 103 words
An oil-impregnated capacitor comprising at least a pair of electrodes, at least one thin insulator sheet solely consisting of a polypropylene plastic film wound between said electrodes and impregnated with an insulating oil, said oil consisting essentially of an insulating oil having a physical property which allows the impregnated film to expand at 80° C by an amount no greater than 0.5 per cent over the unimpregnated film at room temperature and a physical property which allows said insulating oil to be present in the film at 80° C in an amount no greater than 10 per cent by weight of the film.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 103 words
An oil-impregnated capacitor comprising at least a pair of electrodes, at least one thin insulator sheet solely consisting of a polypropylene plastic film wound between said electrodes and impregnated with an insulating oil, said oil consisting essentially of an insulating oil having a physical property which allows the impregnated film to expand at 80° C by an amount no greater than 0.5 per cent over the unimpregnated film at room temperature and a physical property which allows said insulating oil to be present in the film at 80° C in an amount no greater than 10 per cent by weight of the film.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 22 words
An oil-impregnated capacitor according to claim 1, wherein said insulating oil is selected from the group consisting of diarylethane, alkylnaphthalene and dibenzyltoluene.
