The "Electrical Circuits and Systems" course delves into the core principles of electrical circuits, focusing on both theoretical concepts and practical applications. The course begins by introducing the fundamental components of electrical circuits, including voltage sources, current sources, resistors, capacitors, and inductors. Students will learn to apply Ohm's Law and Kirchhoff's Laws to analyze basic series and parallel circuits.

As the course progresses, students will explore advanced techniques for circuit analysis, such as the node-voltage method, mesh-current method, and the superposition theorem. They will also study the Thevenin and Norton equivalent circuits and the maximum power transfer theorem. In addition to DC circuits, the course covers AC circuits, where students will understand the concepts of phasors, complex impedance, and resonance in RLC circuits.

The course also addresses the workings of three-phase systems, which are commonly used in industrial and commercial applications. Students will examine the advantages of three-phase power, delta and wye connections, and the calculation of three-phase power. Further, learners will gain insights into the principles of transformers, including transformer efficiency, regulation, and auto-transformers.

An important aspect of the course is the introduction to electric machines, including DC motors, generators, and AC motors, with a focus on their operating principles and applications. The course also covers control systems and feedback mechanisms, specifically open-loop vs. closed-loop systems, PID controllers, and their applications in electrical systems. Finally, students will learn essential troubleshooting techniques and safety measures critical for working with electrical circuits and systems.

Throughout the course, students will gain the skills necessary to analyze, design, and troubleshoot electrical circuits and systems, preparing them for roles in various industries, including electronics, electrical engineering, and energy systems.
