Electronics, Instrumentation & Electrical Database
The following are Electrical Capacitance equations for various configurations.
| Capacitors | C = Q/V [F] (Farads) |
| Capacitor in Series |  |
| Capacitors in Parallel |  |
| Charging a Capacitor |  |
| Discharging a Capacitor |
 |
| Capacitance of a Parallel-plate Capacitor |
 |
| Isolated Sphere |  |
| Energy stored in a charged capacitor |  |
| If the capacitor is isolated |  |
| If the capacitor is connected to a battery |  |
| For R C circuits Charging a capacitor |  |
| Discharging a capacitor |  |
- If the capacitor is isolated, the presence of the dielectric decreases the potential difference between the plates.
- If the capacitor is connected to a battery, the presence of the dielectric increases the charge stored in the capacitor.
- The introduction of the dielectric increases the capacitance of the capacitor
