Circuits and phase relationships

239 views

What happens when you encounter a circuit that has resistors, inductors, and capacitors in series or parallel? How do you figure out what the phase relationship in a series/parallel reactance and resistive circuit?

We know that the phase relationship is dependent on the circuit’s total impedance, Z = R + xL + xC.

You’ll have to calculate the circuit’s total resistance, total inductance, and total capacitance to calculate the total impedance. From there you can calculate your phase angle.
