Rules for drawing phasor diagram:

  • The given diagram is series connected, so the current is taken as reference.
  • The voltage across the resistor is in phase with current.
  • The voltage leads the current by 90° in the inductor.
  • The voltage lags the current by 90° in the capacitor.


Explanation

The phasor diagram for series RLC circuit is shown below:

In the diagram shown above, we observed that the net voltage (Vs) leads the current (I). This means inductive reactance (XL) is greater than capacitive reactance (XC) i.e.   XL > XC
