Current leads voltage in a capacitor. Voltage leads current in an inductor. I was taught this using the CIVIL spelling:. In a C I leads V leads I in an L. (I hope that makes sense.) The effect is that the voltage or current will be 180° out of phase between the inductor and the capacitor and so in summing them they tend to cancel out rather than add.

This is because energy is stored in capacitors and inductors whereas it is consumed in resistors.
