In a pure capacitor current leads the voltage by 90 degrees. when a resistor is

introduced in between the current leads an angle less than 90 degrees.

Similarly in a Dielectric material when a cavity or deterioration starts , the life of the

material starts deteriorating , as there is a resistance getting added and hence

leakage current increases In tan Delta we find the difference in the angle and

periodically note down the pace at which deterioration takes place.

How can I determine the capacitance of an unknown capacitor?

There are several multimeters which allow you to find out the pF of a capacitor, at least paper and ceramic types. You may want to look up YouTube videos that show you how to use a multimeter to determine the capacitance. Again, it is dependent on the capacitor we are talking about. Sometimes they are rated and have a data sheet, sometimes a test bench may be required to perform things.


How do you measure capacitance?

A capacitance meter is a piece of electronic test equipment used to measure capacitors. Depending on the sophistication of the meter, it may simply display the capacitance or it may also measure a number of other parameters such as leakage, equivalent series resistance, and inductance.

Definition of a capacitance in mosfet?

Capacitance in mosfet is of three types: gate capacitance diffusion capacitance routing capacitance Gate capacitance: limits the speed of the device t which it can be operated Diffusion capacitance: It is the capacitance due to charge carriers between drain and source. Routing capacitance: It is the capacitance of the metal which is deposited on the top of oxide layer.


Which part of the hartely oscillator decides frequency of oscillations?

An oscillator has a tuned circuit (inductance+capacitance) to determine the frequency. When the inductor is tapped to give the required phase-shift for oscillation it is a Hartley oscillator. When the capacitance is tapped it is a Colpitts.

What is the difference between capacitance and stray capacitance?

Capacitance is an ability to store an electric charge. "If we consider two same conductors as capacitor,the capacitance will be small even the conductors are close together for long time." this effect is called Stray Capacitance.


What is doble testing?

a Doble test, often called a power-factor test is the most effective known field test procedure for the early detection of bushing contamination and deterioration. This test also provides measurement of ac test current which is directly proportional to bushing capacitance
