State the expressions for the effective or equivalent inductance of a combination of a number of inductors connected (a) in series (b) in parallel. Assume that their mutual inductance can be ignored.

Answer»

We assume that the inductors are so far apart that their mutual inductance is negligible. 

(a) For a series combination of a number of inductors, L1 , L2 , L3 , …, the equivalent inductance is

Lseries = L1 + L2 + L3 + ……..

(b) For a parallel combination of a number of inductors, L1 , L2 , L3 , …, the equivalent inductance is

\(\cfrac{1}{L_{pa1rallel}}\) = \(\cfrac{1}{L_1}\) + \(\cfrac{1}{L_2}\) + \(\cfrac{1}{L_3}\) + …
