  1. Unit of capacitance C1 formal scientific

    The SI unit of electrical capacitance, defined as the capacitance of a capacitor that stores one coulomb of charge per one volt of potential difference between its plates.

    • A typical capacitor might have a capacitance of a few microfarads.
    • The farad is a relatively large unit, so capacitors are often measured in microfarads or picofarads.
    • The formula for capacitance in farads is C = Q/V, where Q is charge in coulombs and V is voltage in volts.
