Capacitive Reactance in Short Line Formulas

Capacitive Reactance in a short line is the opposition to current flow due to the line’s capacitance, typically negligible compared to inductive reactance and resistance in such lines. And is denoted by X_c. Capacitive Reactance is usually measured using the Ohm for Electric Resistance. Note that the value of Capacitive Reactance is always negative.
