View Answer 24 -11 Explanation:- Answer : A Discuss it below : Arvind Said on 2016-10-19 08:56:04 Capacitor connected in parallel :- improve power factor. Capacitor connected in series :- improve power transfer capability of transmission line. Arundeep Said on 2015-07-25 04:47:05 It is always connected in parallel for AC supply and untill they charge, a cap acts like a short circuit, and an inductor acts like an open circuit. But after charging vice-versa !! OOPS Login [Click here] is required to post your answer/result Help other students, write article, leave your comments
