Which limiting electrical condition increases when electrolyte leakage degrades capacitor performance?

A)Equivalent series resistance
B)Dielectric breakdown voltage
C)Insulation resistance value
D)Capacitance temperature coefficient

💡 Explanation

With electrolyte leakage, increased ion mobility elevates the **Ohmic heating** of the capacitor because ion mobility increases resistance therefore increases. Increased ESR can cause premature component failure, rather than altered breakdown voltage or similar issues under controlled conditions.
