8.2: Capacitors and Capacitance

A capacitor is a device used to store electrical charge and electrical energy. It consists of at least two electrical conductors separated by a distance. (Note that such electrical conductors are sometimes referred to as "electrodes," but more correctly, they are "capacitor plates.") The space between capacitors may simply be a vacuum ...

where: Z c is the characteristic impedance. L is the inductance of the line, and. C is the capacitance between the conductors. Figure 1 shows typical surge impedance load (SIL) limits for long high voltage power lines versus thermal load limits. Notice that when a transmission line is transmitting its SIL load the reactive power generated and drawn by the line are equal.

Change a pickup''s resonant frequency and tone with a loading capacitor

The pickup coils, when put in series, add their inductance. In parallel, their inductance is halved by the combination. A pickup by itself does have a resonant frequency (because the coils do have some interwinding capacitance), but that''s very much a "tree falling the forest, nobody there to hear it" thing - when loaded by a cable, the resonant frequency is …
