Inductance. In electromagnetism and electronics, inductance is the property of a conductor by which a change in current in the conductor induces a voltage in both the conductor itself and in any nearby conductors.
Self-Inductance and Inductive Reactance. The property of self-inductance is a particular form of electromagnetic induction. Self inductance is defined as the induction of a voltage in a current-carrying wire when the current in the wire itself is changing.he reduction of current flow in a circuit due to induction is called inductive reactance. By taking a closer look at a coil of wire and applying Lenz's law, it can be seen how inductance reduces the flow of current in the circuit.
