Capacitor embedded between busbars, electric power device and electric power conversion device

Abstract

The present invention provides an inter-bus-bar built-in capacitor capable of reducing the size of a capacitor used in an inverter or the like or downsizing the capacitor, and provides power equipment as well as a power converting apparatus. The inter-bus-bar built-in capacitor is provided between a pair of opposing bus bars and includes a high-dielectric-constant material which has a relative dielectric constant of at least 50 when a voltage of 1,000 V is applied at a temperature of 25° C. Thus, it is possible to provide the inter-bus-bar built-in capacitor capable of reducing the size of a capacitor used in an inverter or the like or downsizing the capacitor and provide the power equipment as well as the power converting apparatus.
