Course objectives: This is a second course in Electrical Circuit Theory. This course covers various aspects of electrical networks. In this course, Electrical Engineering students will be taught to analyze RLC circuit in time domain, in phasor form and in frequency domain. Student will learn power transmission in single phase system, their power measurement methods and power factor correction for efficient transmission of power. Students will analyze circuits using network theorems in frequency domain. Student will learn about different filters. Students will be given the concept to formulate equations and choose among the different methods to analyze an electrical network.
