A network, in the context of Electrical / Electronics, is a collection of interconnected components. Electric Circuit analysis is the process of finding the voltages across, and the currents through, every component in the network. Electric circuits or networks are the assemblage of devices and or equipment needed to connect the source of energy to the user or the device which exploits it. It is therefore essential for Electrical / Electronics Engineers to start by this course which is the foundation of other courses such as Communications systems, computer systems, Electrical machines, and power systems that all consist of more or less complicated electrical circuits which themselves are made up of a number of circuit elements, this is why an electrical/electronics engineer has to study many different techniques for calculating these values which the aim of this course.
This module is designed to enable students to achieve a basic knowledge of electrical circuit analysis techniques. To introduce techniques for analyzing the transient of RL, RC and RLC circuits. This module is an essential precursor to several more advanced courses. This subject provides the basis for single AC circuits, poly-phase system and their representation.
