Hi, I'm looking at an experiment at the moment whereby I'm using an LCR meter to measure capacitance. However the effect of leads seems to be quite profound. Connecting up 50cm leads in a parallel setup has a capacitance of about 3pF and in a circle setup about 26pF. What causes such a capacitance and why does varying the shape cause a change in this?
