When capacitors are connected in parallel, the total capacitance is the sum of the individual capacitors' capacitances. If two or more capacitors are connected in parallel, the overall effect is that of a single equivalent capacitor having the sum total of the plate areas of the individual capacitors.

The Following calculation is based on capacitors being connected in parallel. When entering the size of the capacitors, the units must be kept the same from one capacitor to the next. For example, if capacitor one is entered in micro-farads, capacitor two must also be ... ; Total Capacitance of Capacitor Combination:
