Capacitors are used in transformer less power supplies. In such circuits, the capacitor is connected in series with the load because we know that the capacitor and inductor in pure form does not consume power. They just take power in one cycle and deliver it back in the other cycle to the load.
Capacitive load, the capacitor is connected to the power supply, resulting in a capacitive load, which creates a certain current demand on the power supply. Capacitors store electric charges and play the role of storing and releasing electrical energy in circuits. They are a component that stores electric charges.
Full-wave bridge rectifier circuit. Voltage regulator circuit. Power indicator circuit. A capacitive power supply has a voltage dropping capacitor (C1), this is the main component in the circuit. It is used to drop the mains voltage to lower voltage. The dropping capacitor is non-polarized so, it can be connected to any side in the circuit.
Capacitors placed at the load can act as charge reservoirs to buffer the difference between the load current transient and the current being supplied by the voltage source. Reaching back to beginning electronics we remember equation 1, which shows the relationship between the current, capacitance, and voltage changes over time.
Based upon our discussion it should now be understood that capacitors are often placed across the power supply terminals at the load to reduce the voltage excursions caused by load current transients and the finite bandwidth response of the power supply.
The value and type of capacitor used will depend upon the bandwidth of the power supply, the magnitude of the load transient, the frequency components of the load transient, and the acceptable level of voltage excursion caused by the load transients.
