Impedance in power systems explained | Eaton PSEC
8:55
Impedance is a measure of how much a circuit resists the flow of alternating current (AC). Meaning high impedance could result in less current, leading to potential inefficiencies and power losses. Seth So, Eaton Power Systems Experience Center Engineer, explains this and how impedance is the combination of resistance, capacitance, and inductance. Seth also discusses how Ohm’s law is used to measure impedance in AC circuits by replacing resistance (R) with impedance (Z). Seth also explains popular mnemonics and ratios used for impedance. We also illustrate impedance in conceptual detail and explain where impedance comes from regarding components. Finally, we discuss how impedance effects electrical power systems regarding power factor, harmonics, and motor starting.
