Reactance
REACTANCE is the result of the difference between the values of X
C
(capacitive reactance) and
XL (inductive reactance). Reactance is represented by the letter X and its basic measurement is in ohms.
The formula for reactance is:

Alternating Current and Transformers.
Impedance
IMPEDANCE is the combined opposition of current flow by reactance and resistance and is
represented by the symbol Z.
