X312 Applied Theory II: AC Concepts - 90 Hours 5 Credits
This course completes DC concepts by presenting transient effects of capacitors and inductors and discussing magnetic circuits. AC theory concepts and applications are introduced using general sinusoidal format for AC voltage, current, power and frequency as it applies to resistive and reactive series, parallel and series-parallel networks. Circuit analysis includes mesh analysis, superposition, Thevenin’s and Norton’s theorems. Practical lab exercises incorporate standard test equipment, classroom theory, troubleshooting skills, and electrical safety.
