Since the -connected load is purely capacitive, it will not contribute in the average
power, so the total average power at the loads is that of the Y-connected load:

- Hmax will be reduced since the max output voltage Vin in our case will be divided over R

- The center frequency will retain its value.

- The quality factor will decrease since the bandwidth of the filter with RL will increase
due to the decrease of both Hmax and Hmax/2.
