There are 5 modules in this course
This course covers fundamental theory and practical applications of AC electrical circuits, focusing on developing a solid understanding through the phasor model approach. The curriculum begins with signals and waveforms, introducing sinusoidal parameters, average and RMS values, capacitors, and inductors. Students then learn complex arithmetic for phasor modeling of passive and active elements, impedance concepts, and Ohm's and Kirchhoff's laws. The course progresses to analyzing steady-state sinusoidal circuits in series and parallel configurations, including two-phase installations. Power concepts in AC systems are thoroughly covered, including complex power models, real, reactive, and apparent power, power factor, and circuit power calculations. The final section addresses power factor correction for inductive loads and industrial installations.
