Inductive Reactance

Written by Jerry Ratzlaff on 12 January 2016. Posted in Electrical Engineering

Inductive reactance, abbreviated as \(X_l\) is the current flow of an alternating current in an inductor is reduced.

Inductive Reactance formula

\(\large{ X_l = 2 \; \pi \; f \; L }\)

Units	English	SI
\(\large{ X_l }\) = inductive reactance	\(\large{H}\)	\(\large{H}\)
\(\large{ \pi }\) = Pi	\(\large{dimensionless\;constant}\)
\(\large{ f }\) = frequency	\(\large{Hz}\)	\(\large{Hz}\)
\(\large{ L }\) = Inductance	\(\large{H}\)	\(\large{H}\)

\(\large{ f = \frac{ X_L }{ 2 \; \pi \; L } }\)
\(\large{ L = \frac{ X_L }{ 2 \; \pi \; f } }\)
