If a RLC series circuit  contains more capacitive VARs than inductive VARs, then the circuit has a _____ power factor.
A) lagging
B) leading

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In an RLC series circuit, if there are more capacitive VARs than inductive VARs, the circuit exhibits a leading power factor. This is because capacitors provide leading reactive power, counteracting the lagging effect of inductors.
