Capacitance in AC Circuits – Reactance Capacitive Reactance in a purely capacitive circuit is the opposition to current flow in AC circuits only. Like resistance, reactance is also measured in Ohm''s but is given the symbol X to distinguish it from a purely resistive value. to distinguish it from a purely resistive value.
