This capacitors in series reference table shows the total capacitance for a range of capacitor 1 values, assuming a capacitor 2 of 10 µF. Every figure is computed with the same engine that powers our Capacitors in Series Calculator, so the numbers are exact.
| Capacitor 1 | Total capacitance |
|---|---|
| 2.5 µF | 2.0000 |
| 5 µF | 3.3333 |
| 7.5 µF | 4.2857 |
| 10 µF | 5.0000 |
| 15 µF | 6.0000 |
| 20 µF | 6.6667 |
| 30 µF | 7.5000 |
| 50 µF | 8.3333 |
| 70 µF | 8.7500 |
| 100 µF | 9.0909 |
How to use this table
Find the row closest to your capacitor 1 and read across to the total capacitance. For a value between two rows, the real figure sits between them — or enter your exact numbers in the Capacitors in Series Calculator for a precise answer.
Need a value that is not in the table? — the Capacitors in Series Calculator does it instantly, for free, with the formula and a worked example built in.
