The capacitor at approximately 75% of the guaranteed maximum capacitance, shall be tested for 250 hours at twice rated voltage, and at a temperature equal to the maximum operating temperature± 3°C for the respective style. At the end of this period the capacitance shall not have changed more than ±5% or ±0.5pF, whichever is greater, from its value before the life test. The I.R. shall be 1 gigaohm minimum and the“Q” at 1 MHz shall be a minimum of 40% of the initial test limit.
