A capacitor assembly includes a capacitor having ends. A terminal covers less than an area of one end. A wire bond has opposing ends with one end being coupled to the terminal and is configured to break connection with a circuit when an electrical current through the wire bond reaches a fusing current. An energy storage module includes at least two capacitor assemblies. The wire bond of one capacitor is electrically connected to the second terminal of an adjacent capacitor. An energy storage assembly includes two energy storage modules stacked one on top of the other. A pulse forming network includes conductors and at least two energy storage modules. A method of making a module includes charging each of the capacitors, removing each capacitor that fails, connecting one end of a wire bond to one terminal and connecting the other end to an adjacent capacitor or to a conductor.
