ELPT 1311 - Basic Electrical Theory

CIP Code: 46.0301
Credit(s): 3
Basic theory and practice of electrical circuits. Includes calculations as applied to alternating and direct current. Explain atomic structure and basic values such as voltage, current, resistance, and power; determine electrical values for combination circuits in direct current (DC) and alternating current (AC) containing resistance, inductance, and capacitance; summarize the principles of magnetism; calculate voltage drop based on conductor length, type of material, and size; and utilize electrical measuring instruments.
