Universal multi-functional common conductive shield structure for electrical circuitry and energy conditioning

An electrode arrangement, comprising:

• a first plurality of electrodes of substantially equal size and shape coupled conductively to each other, and wherein the first plurality of electrodes are aligned and parallel with one another;
• a second plurality of electrodes of substantially equal size and shape coupled conductively to each other, and wherein the second plurality of electrodes are aligned and parallel with one another;
• a third plurality of electrodes of substantially equal size and shape that are coupled conductively to each other, and wherein the third plurality of electrodes are aligned and parallel with one another;
• a first electrode of the first plurality of electrodes is positioned below a first electrode of the second plurality of electrodes, and a second electrode of the first plurality of electrodes is positioned above the first electrode of the second plurality of electrodes, and a first electrode of the third plurality of electrodes is positioned above the second electrode of the first plurality of electrodes, and a third electrode of the first plurality of electrodes is positioned above the first electrode of the third plurality of electrodes, and a second electrode of the second plurality of electrodes is positioned above the third electrode of the first plurality of electrodes, and a fourth electrode of the first plurality of electrodes is positioned above the second electrode of the second plurality of electrodes, and a second electrode of the third plurality of electrodes is positioned above the fourth electrode of the first plurality of electrodes, and a fifth electrode of the first plurality of electrodes is positioned above the second electrode of the third plurality of electrodes;
• wherein the electrodes of the second plurality of electrodes and electrodes of the third plurality of electrodes are of substantially equal size and shape and wherein any one electrode of either the second plurality of electrodes or of the third plurality of electrodes, is smaller than any one electrode of the first plurality of electrodes;
• and
• wherein any one electrode of the second plurality of electrodes and any one electrode of the third plurality of electrodes are shielded from one another by at least one electrode of the third plurality of electrodes.
