A capacitor typically consists of two conductive plates separated by an insulating material called a dielectric. The plates store electrical charge, with one plate holding positive charge and the other holding negative charge. The dielectric can be made of various materials, such as ceramic, plastic, or paper, which affects the capacitor's properties. Key labels include the positive and negative terminals, the dielectric material, and the plates themselves.
