The original diagram has a series circuit containing and , in parallel with ; it is not three separate parallel components. The electrical admittance is therefore
For , voltage and current are in phase when the imaginary part of vanishes. Excluding the zero-frequency solution, division by gives
A nonzero lossy parallel coil resonance exists only if . With , and ,
For zero electrical resistance, the ideal parallel inductor-capacitor cancellation occurs at
The fractional reduction relative to the zero-resistance coil is
At exactly and , , so finite applied voltage draws zero net current in the ideal model. The quoted frequency is the limiting parallel-resonance value; the phase of an exactly zero current is undefined.
Let be the total parallel capacitance, since capacitors in a parallel circuit have additive capacitances. Put into the lossy parallel coil resonance condition:
The additional capacitance is therefore
This is the added capacitance, rather than the new total, and the conversion from frequency to angular frequency is essential.
