'Reactance' is the name given to the opposition to the flow of alternating current, due to the inductance of a load and the frequency of the supply voltage. It is measured in ohms.

What is the opposition to the current flow?
resistance is the opposition to the flow of electric charge
Define 2XFY in electric cable?
Copper xlpe armoured cable
What does capacitive reactance oppose?
Inductive reactance.
What is the symbol for inductive reactance?
Inductive reactance does NOT have it own sign or symbol. Rather, it uses Ohms as a quantifier. But Capacitive reactance ALSO uses Ohms as a quantifier. Fortunately, 1 Ohm of Inductive reactance is cancelled by 1 Ohm of Capacitive reactance at the same frequency of measurement.
What is the use of reactance relay?
reactance relay is used for distance protection of the transmission line....
Conclusion for capacitance and capacitive reactance?
Capacitance is the capacity to store electric charges, usually a small amount of it, in a capacitor.Capacitive reactance is the reactance associated with a capacitor. Reactance is something that opposes the flow of current, in an AC circuit - but, unlike resistance, DOES NOT convert electrical energy into heat.
What is the opposition to the current flow?
resistance is the opposition to the flow of electric charge
What is the unit of inductive reactance?
Inductive reactance, as well as capacitive reactance, is measured in ohms.
Define 2XFY in electric cable?
Copper xlpe armoured cable
What does capacitive reactance oppose?
Inductive reactance.
1997 Dodge Stratus odometer cable located?
The odometer is electric, no cable.
How do you disconnect speedometer cable on 96 dodge caravan?
No cable, speedometer is electric
Where is the speedometer cable on 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee?
It does not have a cable, the speedometer is electric.
What elements make electric cable?
Copper and aluminium are used for electric cables.
What type of energy does electrical cable have?
Electric.
Is a trolley car a cable car?
No. Trolley cars are powered by an electric cable, and have electric motors. Cable cars, such as the ones in San Francisco, have a steel cable that moves in a slot in the street. The cable car has a "grip" that clamps onto the cable, and the car is pulled along until the "grip" is released.
What is the inverse of reactance?
The reciprocal of reactance is susceptance, expressed in siemens.
