Program details
Overview
This foundation course covers both theory and application in direct current (DC) electricity, addressing resistive, capacitive and inductive circuits. Students apply relevant laws and theorems, including Ohm's Law and Kirchhoff's Laws, to series and parallel circuits built with resistors, capacitors and inductors under DC conditions, in both classroom and laboratory settings. Lab work includes using instruments for testing, such as the digital multimeter and oscilloscope, to measure circuit parameters, pairing theory with practice.
