What is self healing metallized capacitor?
Self- healing is the ability of a metallized capacitor to clear a fault area where a momentary short occurs due to dielectric breakdown under voltage. The conditions that lead to a fault vary. In the production of the dielectric film, contamination can occur or a process control problem can result in compromised dielectric strength.

What happens if a metallized film capacitor is self-cleared?
During self-clearing of metallized film capacitors, there is a gradual decrease of capacitance as a result of an increasing number of self-clearing events, which eventually leads to catastrophic breakdown of the capacitor; for example, see Figure 4 B.
