Vintage Computer Festival East 2007 Failed Capacitor removed
This is the failed capacitor from a powersupply for my PDP-8/I. The top is supposed to be recessed, not bulging out. You can see on the paper towel some of the oil that leaked out. The capacitor is a 2 uf 660 volts AC capacitor for a ferroresonant transformer. It was made in 1968.

related, computers, peripherals used with them, DEC or third party, or
documentation.
