>>10835481hmmm... I think this poster
>>10835368 is talking about a capacitor he even mentions the "insulator"...in a capacitor the electrons do not pass throu the insulator they arrange in the plaques acording to the voltage applied to each plaque, in a cap you need to "close the circuit" externally to actually make those electrons accumulated in each plaque do some work otherwise they gonna stay there because the "insulator"(the dielectric) will not allow them to pass (in reality theres some leakage of electrons but this is a bad thing).
if the electrons could pass the insulator/dielectric that would make a very shitty capacitor (good caps MUST HAVE VERY LOW leakage current)
BTW I'm not talking about "DIELECTRICITY" thats a made up word used by the tesla-ken wheeler schizos
a dielectric in electronics is a insulator that has a "surface property" that allows them to hold charge but basically only the surface, the core behaves as an insulator!, this is why the type of dielectric is directly related to how much charge that capacitor can hold (comparing only dielectrics while keeping everything the same for example with the same size of plaques)
pic is an electrolitic cap but the principle is basically the same for all caps.
