Straight Talk about Electrolytic Capacitors in your UPS Electrolytic capacitors are fairly simple devices, ranging in size from a thimble to a soda can, that smooth out fluctuations in electrical voltage. A typical UPS contains a dozen or more different types and sizes of electrolytic capacitors—small ones that smooth out the power supplied to the UPS processor (its on-board intelligence), and large ones to regulate the power that flows to protected equipment.
