Which outcome occurs when exceeding capacitor voltage ratings?

💡 Explanation

When the electric field surpasses the dielectric strength, dielectric breakdown allows conductive paths, causing a short circuit, because the insulating properties fail. Therefore, a short circuit results, rather than capacitance decay or ESR shifts if voltage remains within limits.
