# Measuring Capacitance in series combination

Objective

Measuring the capacitance of series combination of capacitors.

Procedure for two capacitors

- Connect one capacitor in IN1 and the second one in Ground. Connect the opposite ends of both capacitors together.

- Click on “Capacitance on IN1” . Should not touch the capacitor while measuring

Discussion

For a series combination of capacitors, the effective capacitance is given by the relation .
