Here is a great post on ESD capacitors: What are ESD capacitors? This post is going to focus more on how to choose an ESD protection Capacitor. Also, keep in mind there are many different ways to protect a circuit
Capacitor''s impedance is inversely proportional to frequency, that means high frequency swings see capacitor as a short circuit, so the high frequency currents follow the path from the capacitor rather than the LED, saving the LED from damaging, and so this is how the capacitor saves the LED from High Frequency currents, basically it bypasses the LED.

Other uses for decoupling capacitors include circuit protection from noise injected into the power supply by other switching devices, including DC/DC converters, processors, sensors, radio modules, and high-speed digital circuitry.

Capacitor Bank Protection Definition: Protecting capacitor banks involves preventing internal and external faults to maintain functionality and safety. Types of Protection: There are three main protection types: Element Fuse, Unit Fuse, and Bank Protection, each serving different purposes.
Capacitor banks require a means of unbalance protection to avoid overvoltage conditions, which would lead to cascading failures and possible tank ruptures. Figure 7. Bank connection at bank, unit and element levels. The primary protection method uses fusing.
There are mainly three types of protection arrangements for capacitor bank. Element Fuse. Bank Protection. Manufacturers usually include built-in fuses in each capacitor element. If a fault occurs in an element, it is automatically disconnected from the rest of the unit. The unit can still function, but with reduced output.
Discussions on the protection of pole-mounted capacitor banks on distribution circuits or capacitors connected to the terminals of rotating machines are not included as they are outside the scope of this standard. Scope: This guide applies to the protection of shunt power capacitor banks and filter capacitor banks.
Types of Protection: There are three main protection types: Element Fuse, Unit Fuse, and Bank Protection, each serving different purposes. Element Fuse Protection: Built-in fuses in capacitor elements protect from internal faults, ensuring the unit continues to work with lower output.
