TECH 0068 - Basic Electric Circuits

This course is designed to introduce the student to the fundamental relationship of voltage and current in circuits containing resistors and/or capacitors and/or inductors with DC source. Included in the course is a comprehensive lab component that introduces the student to the standard lab equipment used in measuring fundamental D.C. circuit parameters. The application of devices is tressed to ensure the student has a necessary background to recognize: (a) the device and its operation in a larger circuit and (b) the probable cause of a fault within the circuit.
