A low-voltage, low-inductance device for storing electrical charge in a snubber circuit and a method of minimizing inductance in the snubber circuit using the device, wherein the device includes a plurality of extended electrodes, in parallel or series, that are joined to a positive conductor terminal at one end spray and at a negative conductor terminal at the other end spray so that end sprays of adjacent extended electrodes are alternately joined to the positive and negative conductor terminals. Accordingly, current flowing though adjacent extended electrodes is of substantially equal intensity but different in direction. As a result, inductance produced effectively cancels out that of adjacent extended electrodes.

1. A low inductance device for storing an electrical charge, the device comprising:a capacitor having a plurality of extended electrodes, wherein electrical current passing through each extended electrode from said plurality of extended electrodes flows in a direction opposite of current passing through one or more adjacent extended electrodes of said plurality of extended electrodes to provide cancellation of inductance in the device, and an insulating film collar that is disposed about a first end spray and a second end spray of each of the plurality of extended electrodes to further minimize inductance.
