Electrical condenser

In a condenser wherein first and second conductive strips are wound together with insulating strips to form an elongated condenser body having longitudinally opposite first and second ends provided with respective first and second terminals connected to the first and second conductive strips, the improvement wherein:

• a mass of material permeates said body and bonds said strips together into a rigid block;
• said conductive strips are both substantially narrower than said insulating strips and are longitudinally offset from each other with said first strip terminating short of said second end and said second strip terminating short of said first end;
• said body is formed at said ends with respective first and second transversely extending socket holes, said first conductive strips being exposed in said first hole and said second conductive strip being exposed in said second hole;
• said terminals have respective first and second connection parts respectively tightly received in said first and second holes in good electrical contact with said first and second conductive strips;
• and
• a hard casing of insulating material tightly surrounds said condenser body, said first terminal being a ground lug extending longitudinally along said body, imbedded in said casing, exposed at both ends of said body, and having a throughgoing hole through which said second terminal extends.
