Which consequence results when charge builds excessively within a capacitor?

💡 Explanation

Dielectric breakdown will occur within the capacitor. This happens as an intensified electric field exceeds the dielectric strength, causing ionization because the insulating material becomes conductive; therefore a breakdown occurs rather than charge balancing by reactance.
