Definitions:

Series Connection

A method of connecting electrical components end-to-end, so the same current flows through each component.

Total Capacitance

The sum of individual capacitances in a circuit when connected in parallel, reducing when capacitors are in series, affecting the circuit's ability to store charge.

μ F

Microfarads, a unit of capacitance equal to one millionth of a farad.

Parallel Connection

A way of connecting electrical components in a circuit so that each component is directly connected to the voltage source, and the current can flow along multiple pathways.
