1. A system for measuring equivalent series resistance of a capacitor, the system comprising:

  • a measuring unit configured to measure impedance over a frequency range to find the equivalent series resistance of the capacitor, wherein the measuring unit includes an input/output (I/O) port; and

    a connector assembly having a mating portion adapted for electrically connecting the connector assembly to the I/O port of the measuring unit, wherein the connector assembly further includes a terminal portion connected to leads of the capacitor using conductive adhesive;

    wherein the measuring unit is calibrated with the mating portion of the connector assembly connected to the input/output port of the measuring unit.
