RESISTANCE

• Property of a substance that


opposes the flow of current
• The behavior of pure resistor
in an AC Circuit is exactly
similar to that DC circuit
Resistor – device that has
electrical resistance and that is
used in an electric circuit for
protection, operation or current
control
DC Circuit
• Current and voltage are in
phase
INDUCTANCE

• Property of a substance that


opposes the change in current
Inductor or choke coil – a two
terminal device that consist of a
coiled wire wound in common
core or in free air
• A pure inductor in an AC
circuit takes current that lags
behind the impressed voltage
by exactly 90 electrical
degrees
CAPACITANCE

• The ability of a component or circuit to collect and store


energy in the form of an electric charge
• It is also the opposition to the change in voltage
Capacitor or condenser – a device on which electric charges
can be stored so as to posses electrical potential. It consists of
two conducting plates separated by a layer of an insulating
medium called dielectric such as air, glass, mica, paper,
porcelain, and oil
• A perfect capacitor in an AC Circuit takes current that lead
the impressed voltage by exactly 90 electrical degrees
TYPES OF POWER FACTOR (pf)
1. Unity pf – the voltage and current are in-phase.
Example: resistive loads such as incandescent bulbs,
electric flat irons, water heaters, etc.

2. Lagging pf – the current lags the voltage by an acute angle


ϴ.
Example: induction motors, fluorescent lamps, door bells,
electric fans, television set, air-conditioning unit, etc.

3. Leading pf – the current leads the voltage by an acute


angle ϴ.
Example: capacitive loads such as synchronous motors.
BEHAVIOR OF RESISTANCE, INDUCTANCE AND
CAPACITANCE IN AC CIRCUITS:

1. In a pure resistance circuit, the current is in-phase with the


impressed voltage. This implies that the power factor of the
circuit is unity

2. In a pure inductance circuit, the current lags the impressed


voltage by 90°

3. In a pure capacitance circuit, the current leads the impressed


voltage by 90°
IMPEDANCE FUNCTION
• Impedance (Z) – total opposition to the circuit present to an
alternating current. It is the joint effect of resistance.

𝑍 = 𝑅 + 𝑗𝑋

• Reactance (jX) – imaginary part of the impedance, function in


an alternating current circuit. The property of inductor or
capacitor that opposes the flow of current.
• Inductive Reactance (𝑿𝑳 ) – effective resistance of the
inductive coil to an alternating current.
• Capacitive Reactance (𝑿𝑪 ) – effective resistance of the
capacitor to an alternating current.
