    Uploaded by

    Jayson Bryan Mutuc
    This document discusses electrical circuits involving series and parallel combinations of resistors (R), inductors (L), and capacitors (C). It provides formulas for calculating impedance, current, voltage, and power factor in R-L, R-C, and R-L-C circuits. Several example problems are also given to demonstrate applying the formulas to calculate values for circuit elements in different configurations when given other parameter values.

    Dielectric Loss in Capacitor
    An ideal capacitor is one in which there are no losses and whose current leads the
    voltage by 90°. In practice, it is impossible to get such a capacitor although close
    approximation is achieved by proper design. In every capacitor, there is always
    some dielectric loss and hence it absorbs some power from the circuit. Due to this
    loss, the phase angle is somewhat less than 90°.
