The aim of this paper is to characterise sets of anisotropic weighted capacity zero. In this we generalise previous known results for the isotropic equivalent. A particular case of this zero capacity set is used to generalise removable singularity results for weak solutions of degenerate quasilinear parabolic equations and for their elliptic equivalent when its structure is still essentially isotropic, with the anisotropy confined to the mixed norms of the generalised Lebesgue spaces involved.
