The Type 1401-C is 500 pF two terminal air capacitor designed as a laboratory reference or working capacitance standard. It features all aluminum construction with shielded cover.  Connections are Type 274 plugs spaced ¾ inches on center. This spacing matches the Type [[716-C]] making them useful as balancing capacitors when performing substitution measurements.

The General Radio 1401-C Standard Air Capacitor was introduced in Catalog N (1954) and remained available through Catalog S (1965).

The Type 1401-C is 500 pF two terminal air capacitor designed as a laboratory reference or working capacitance standard. It features all aluminum construction with shielded cover. Connections are Type 274 plugs spaced ¾ inches on center. This spacing matches the Type 716-C making them useful as balancing capacitors when performing substitution measurements. The Type 1401-C is one of four in the series. For an overview of these capacitors see Type 1401 Series.
