This course provides instruction in the characteristics and applications of alternating current theory, from the point of production through its distribution and use in single-phase and three-phase systems. Students perform a variety of calculations in relation to these topics.

Student Learning Outcomes of the Course:

Calculate electrical circuit configurations, including series, parallel, and series-parallel.
Calculate voltage sources, both single-phase and three-phase, including alternators, generators, and batteries
Understand magnetism and magnetic properties.
