Any answer "why" will depend on the rest of the circuit, which may an electric motor, a filter, or any number of other applications.
If you're asking about 2 or capacitors in parallel, it is to provide a higher capacitance, since the total C will be the sum of each device's individual capacitances.
Ctotal = C1 + C2 + C3 ...+ Cn
Conversely capacitors in series obey the reciprocal law:
1/Ctotal = 1/C1 + 1/C2 + 1/C3 ...+ 1/Cn
The Capacitor with running winding is connected in parallel with main winding.
Parallel to each other.

Ammeter is coneccted in series with circuit but Voltmeter is connected in parallel.
It was mentioned that there are two different ways to connect two or more electrical devices together in a circuit. They can be connected by means of series connections or by means of parallel connections. When all the devices in a circuit are connected by series connections, then the circuit is referred to as a series circuit. When all the devices in a circuit are connected by parallel connections, then the circuit is referred to as a parallel circuit. A third type of circuit involves the dual use of series and parallel connections in a circuit; such circuits are referred to as compound circuits or combination circuits. The circuit depicted at the right is an example of the use of both series and parallel connections within the same circuit. In this case, light bulbs A and B are connected by parallel connections and light bulbs C and D are connected by series connections. This is an example of a combination circuitBy EngineerMuhammad Zaheer Meer GMS
The total charge on capacitors in parallel connected to a circuit is the sum of the individual charges on each capacitor.
When capacitors are connected in parallel, the total capacitance in the circuit in which they are connected is the sum of both capacitances. Capacitors in parallel add like resistors in series, while capacitors in series add like resistors in parallel.
When a capacitor and resistor are connected in parallel in a circuit, the behavior changes in that the capacitor stores and releases electrical energy while the resistor controls the flow of current. This combination can affect the overall impedance and time constant of the circuit, leading to changes in the voltage and current characteristics.
When a capacitor is connected in parallel with a battery in a circuit, it can store and release electrical energy. This can affect the overall performance by smoothing out voltage fluctuations, filtering out noise, and improving the stability of the circuit.
When a capacitor is connected to a circuit, the current flow through the capacitor initially increases and then decreases as the capacitor charges up.
The Capacitor with running winding is connected in parallel with main winding.
Voltmeters are connected in parallel in a circuit.
In principle, it is infinite. I have not connected a parallel circuit in ages.
A voltmeter is connected in parallel in an electrical circuit.
a 30 pf capacitor is connected into a 240v, 60 hz circuit. what is the current flow into the circuit
when a capacitor is connected to earth the potential of capacitor becomes zero. as a result all the charge residing on the conductors of a capacitor passes away and the final charge on capacitor becomes zero
in parallel circuit passive components such as resistor capacitor and inductor are connected in such away tht all components positive sided terminals are connected together and similarly negative sided terminals. and then positive terminal of the source is connected to positive side and vice versa.while in case of series circuit negative terminal of first component is connected to the positive terminal of the second component and so on and then source is connected
