Source sentences:
text: π/2 radians or +90 degrees, i.e. the current leads the voltage by 90°.
text: In other words in case of a pure inductive circuit, current is lagging 90° behind the voltage (or voltage is leading 90° from current) while in case of a pure capacitive circuit, current is leading 90° behind the voltage (or Voltage is lagging 90° from current).
text: Also, if you see the phasor diagram of an ideal AC capacitor circuit you can observe that, current leads the voltage by 90⁰.
text: In pure AC capacitor circuit, the current leads the voltage by an angle of 90 degrees.
text: The phasor diagram is also shown in the waveform indicating that the current (I m ) leads the voltage (V m ) by an angle of π/2.
text: When the TSC is on, or ‘’deblocked’’, the current leads the voltage 90° (as with any capacitor).
text: V C = IXC and is drawn 90° behind the current (as current leads the voltage
text: As a capacitor causes current to lead the voltage, capacitive reactance can be used to cancel the inductive reactance of the system.
