EET 221 - Basic Electricity

Description:
The fundamental principles of DC and steady state AC circuit analysis are introduced. Analysis techniques include series/parallel equivalence, nodal, mesh, and phasor analysis. Three hours of lecture per week. Course will be offered every year (Fall).

Prerequisites:
Prerequisite: MATH 154 or instructor permission. Co-requisite: EET 221LAB.

Credits: (3)

Learner Outcomes:
Upon successful completion of this course, the student will be able to:

Use the basic electrical laws (Ohm’s Law, Kirchhoffs Voltage Law, Kirchhoffs Current Law, power) to analyze electrical circuits.
Solve direct current (DC) series, parallel, and series-parallel networks.
Solve alternating current (AC) series and parallel networks using complex notation.
