Capacitors designed for DC voltages produce no internal heating. Therefore they often can be used with more or less reduced voltages up to the so-called upper category voltage where the temperature characteristics of the material put a limit.
Several resonance frequencies. The amplitude increases with V (=>VR). EMR results in excessive noise and might cause mechanical damage and failure. History case: a stacked capacitor failed in PS systems. The major fres depends on the width, W, of the capacitor: fres = v/(2W), v is the sound velocity.
A capacitor bank is a grouping of several identical capacitors interconnected in parallel or in series with one another. These groups of capacitors are typically used to correct or counteract undesirable characteristics, such as power factor lag or phase shifts inherent in alternating current (AC) electrical power supplies.
The applied voltage is also a condition for piezo-effect that may cause harmful audio noise generation by MLCC class II capacitors. Voltage derating may significantly suppress these phenomenons and thus improve the performance of MLCC class II capacitors. Multiplication of derating requirements
As per the equation, C1-20 energy content is depending on voltage squared, thus voltage reduction (voltage derating) has a significant impact on overall energy handling through the capacitor. Reasons for voltage derating can be varied depending on the capacitor technology, construction, and applications.
History case: a stacked capacitor failed in PS systems. The major fres depends on the width, W, of the capacitor: fres = v/(2W), v is the sound velocity. Guidelines: warning about EMR effect and impedance spectroscopy if necessary. Large VBR allows for extremely high voltage acceleration. are observed mostly during HAST.

Note that the rated voltage of low-voltage ceramic capacitors is determined by their polarization characteristics and is not related to electrical breakdown that is typically 10 to 100 times greater than VR. This allows performing HALT at extremely high voltages compared to the rated voltage and results in enormous acceleration of the degradation processes. In many cases application …

Guidelines for determining shock hazard of capacitors
First, it is not the capacitor that can harm you, but the voltage and charge stored in the capacitor. So all capacitors are safe when uncharged, which is what they are when you buy them. To do harm to your body, the voltage across the capacitor''s terminals must be high enough to cause a harmful effect on you. There are no hard rules for at what ...
