Series Resonant Circuit a) When the inductive reactance (XL) becomes equal to the capacitive reactance (XC) in the circuit, the total impedance becomes purely resistive (Z=R). b) In this state, the voltage and current are in same phase (¢@ = 0), the current and power are maximum and impedance is mi ©) Atresonance, L imum, This state is called resonance.
