Each of the capacitors shown in the figure has a capacitance of 3 μF. The equivalent capacitance of the assembly between the points A and B is

3 μF

The correct answer is Option (2) → 3 μF

$\text{Each branch has 3 capacitors in series}$

$C_{\text{series}} = \frac{C}{3} = \frac{3}{3} = 1 \ \mu F$

$\text{There are 3 such branches in parallel}$

$C_{\text{eq}} = 1 + 1 + 1 = 3 \ \mu F$

The equivalent capacitance is $3 \ \mu F$.
