For series ac circuits with reactive elements:
1.The total impedance will be frequency dependent.
2.The impedance of any one element can be greater than the
total impedance of the network.
3.The inductive and capacitive reactances are always in direct
opposition on an impedance diagram.
4.Depending on the frequency applied, the same circuit can
be either predominantly inductive or predominantly
capacitive.
5.At lower frequencies, the capacitive elements will usually
have the most impact on the total impedance, while at high
frequencies, the inductive elements will usually have the
most impact.

The magnitude of the voltage across any one element can
be greater than the applied voltage.
The magnitude of the voltage across an element compared
to the other elements of the circuit is directly related to the
magnitude of its impedance; that is, the larger the
impedance of an element, the larger is the magnitude of
the voltage across the element.
The voltages across a coil or capacitor are always in direct
opposition on a phasor diagram.
The current is always in phase with the voltage across the
resistive elements, lags the voltage across all the inductive
elements by 90°, and leads the voltage across all the
capacitive elements by 90°.
The larger the resistive element of a circuit compared to the
net reactive impedance, the closer is the power factor to
unity.

For parallel ac networks with reactive elements:
1. The total admittance or impedance will be frequency
dependent.
2. Depending on the frequency applied, the same network
can be either predominantly inductive or predominantly
capacitive.
3. The magnitude of the current through any one branch can
be greater than the source current.
4. The inductive and capacitive susceptances are in direct
opposition on an admittance diagram.
5. At lower frequencies, the inductive elements will usually
have the most impact on the total impedance, while at
high frequencies, the capacitive elements will usually have
the most impact.

The impedance of any one element can be less than the total
impedance (recall that for dc circuits, the total resistance must
always be less than the smallest parallel resistor).
7. The magnitude of the current through an element, compared to the
other elements of the network, is directly related to the magnitude
of its impedance; that is, the smaller the impedance of an element,
the larger is the magnitude of the current through the element.
8. The current through a coil is always in direct opposition with the
current through a capacitor on a phasor diagram.
9. The applied voltage is always in phase with the current through the
resistive elements, leads the voltage across all the inductive
elements by 90°, and lags the current through all capacitive
elements by 90°.
10. The smaller the resistive element of a network compared to the net
reactive susceptance, the closer is the power factor to unity.
