Voltage Across Components --Series Circuit

[linguist]

In an AC series circuit comprising of an Inductor with DC resistance, a Capacitor & another Inductor also with DC resistance.

To find the voltage across each Inductor do I use:

VL= I*XL or VL= I*ZL

I think you use the second equation but the reason I ask is that I have noticed that both equations are used by some, so now I am unsure?

Cheers

After thinking about it I suppose that both equations can be used.

Use Impedance-ZL when there is a DC resistance in the Inductor.

Use XL when DC resistance is negligible.

Is that correct?
