What is Equivalent Capacitance?

Equivalent capacitance is the total capacitance of a combination of capacitors when they are connected in series or parallel. It represents the effect of all capacitors combined as a single capacitor. For capacitors in parallel, the total capacitance is the sum of individual capacitances. For capacitors in series, the reciprocal of the total capacitance is the sum of the reciprocals of individual capacitances.
