Description

ELT 101 - Electricity 1
3 Credits (2 Lecture 1 Lab, 0 Shop)
4 Hrs/Wk (2 Hrs. Lecture, 2 Hrs. Lab ) *15 wks
This is the student’s first course in electricity. Atomic structure and units of electrical charge are covered as they apply to D.C. circuits. Test equipment includes voltmeters, ammeters, ohmmeters, power supplies and oscilloscopes. Problem solving techniques will be developed using a basic model of problem analysis. Particular emphasis is placed on Ohm's Law, Kirchoff's voltage and current laws, series, parallel, series-parallel circuits, magnetism, and basic DC ammeter and voltmeter design. The student will learn advanced techniques such as Superposition, Norton, Thevenin, and Millman's theorems used in trouble-shooting complex circuits and networks. The course will provide a foundation for future studies in the electrical and electronics areas. Co-requisite: MAT 104 or MAT 122
