A capacitor segment comprises an inner conductor configured to receive a first potential and having a generally L-shaped longitudinal cross-section. An outer conductor is configured to receive a second potential, and is electrically insulated from the inner conductor. The outer conductor comprises a first section having a generally L-shaped longitudinal cross-section aligned with the inner conductor, and a second section coupled to the first section and having a generally L-shaped lateral cross-section. The second section and the inner conductor define an inner region. A capacitor is located in the inner region and coupled to the inner conductor and the second section. The capacitor segment is configured such that current flows through the capacitor in a first direction, and current flows through the second section in a second direction that generally opposes the first direction.
