A circuit consists of three square loops with atotal of seven capacitors. The circuit beginswith wire going down from a point a. The wiresplits three ways forming two identical squareloops with a shared side before reconnecting.The loops each contain a capacitor c, on thetop side, a capacitor C, on the bottom side,and a capacitor C, on the shared side. Afterreconnecting, the wire splits again intoanother square loop. The loop contains twocapacitors labeled C, one on the left side andone on the right side. The wire reconnectsagain and ends at a point b.
