The capacitor works reliably for a long time. The maximum DC voltage it can withstand is the withstand voltage of the capacitor, also called the DC operating voltage of the capacitor. If in an AC circuit, be aware that the maximum applied AC voltage must not exceed the DC operating voltage of the capacitor. Therefore, the choice of withstand voltage value is a detail that cannot be ignored. Let's take the Samsung brand as an example.
