The course introduces students to DC and AC electric circuit fundamentals and provides a basis for further study in the field. Students will learn about electrical quantities and components, Ohms and Kirchhoffs Laws; circuit analysis and network theorems: series, parallel combinations of RC, RL and RLC circuits; electromagnetism, inductance and transformers. The laboratory provides hands-on experience using circuit simulation software and other devices (multimeter and oscilloscope).

This course begins with physical electrical concepts and continues through the analysis of various specific circuit configurations with dc and ac sources. Topics include resistance capacitance, and inductance in series, parallel, and series-parallel connection, transient circuit analysis, ac analysis using phasors, single and polyphase power concepts, resonance and filters, network theorems, and transformer theory. Applications for the various circuits will also be discussed.
