DC Electrical Circuits: Laboratory Manual

Featuring a total of 15 experiments, this laboratory manual fully addresses the field of DC electrical circuit analysis. It begins with an introduction to a standard electrical laboratory and progresses through basic measurements of voltage and current to series, parallel and series-parallel resistive circuit configurations. More advanced topics include the superposition technique for multi-source circuits, nodal analysis, mesh analysis, Thevenin’s Theorem, maximum power transfer, and an introduction to capacitors and inductors. Each experiment includes a theory overview, electrical component parts list and test equipment inventory. Most exercises may be completed with just a digital multimeter and a dual output DC power supply. This is the print version of the on-line OER. The current revision number and date are version 1.4.4, 13 October 2024.
