The total inductance for series connection is given by:
where, L = Self inductance
M = Mutual inductance
+ Sign is used in mutual inductance when current either enters or leaves from the dot in both the coils
- Sign is used in mutual inductance when current enters from a dot in one coil and leaves without a dot from another coil
Calculation
Given, L1 = 12 H, L2 = 16 H and L3 = 20 H
M1 = - 8 H, M2 = -10 and M3 = 4 H
Leq = 20 H
Additional Information The total inductance for parallel connection is given by:
- Sign is used in mutual inductance when current either enters or leaves from the dot in both the coils
+ Sign is used in mutual inductance when current enters from a dot in one coil and leaves without a dot from another coil
