What is the Role of Capacitor in AC and DC Circuit? Role of Capacitor in AC Circuits: In an AC circuit, capacitor reverses its charges as the current alternates and produces a lagging voltage (in other words, capacitor provides leading current in AC circuits and networks) Role and Performance of Capacitor in DC Circuit In a DC Circuit, the capacitor once charged with the applied voltage acts as an open switch. What is the Role of Capacitor in AC and DC Circuit? Let’s explain in detail, but we will go back to the basics of capacitor first to discuss the matter. What is Capacitor? The capacitor is a two terminal electrical device used to store electrical energy in the form of electric field between the two plates. It is also known as a condenser and the SI unit of its capacitance measure is Farad “F”, where Farad is a large unit of capacitance, so they are using microfarads (µF) or nanofarads (nF) nowadays.
