RATIONALE

Electric circuit analysis is the process of finding the voltages across, and the currents through, every
component in the network. There are many different techniques for calculating these values.

This subject is the course on the basics of Network Analysis, introduction to network elements and
explained all the possible method for finding voltage and current in any network component with DC,
single phase AC and 3 phase AC sources.

It aims at making the student conversant with different techniques of solving the problems in the
field of Electric circuits and analysis.

OBJECTIVES

The students should be able to:

1) Explain the concept of electrostatics and capacitance effect and analyze different Circuit
Elements, Energy Sources and analysis of Network by Kirchhoff’s Laws.

2) Analyze the concept of Node and Mesh Analysis; analyze different theorems for dc circuits.

3) Analyze single phase circuits using resistor, inductor & capacitor elements.

4) Explain and analyze series and parallel resonant behaviour of a circuit.

5) Analysis of balanced three phase ac circuit and three phase power measurement

6) Understand the concept of transients and the behaviour of circuits during transient conditions.

The present scenario unfolds a series of challenges that require a mastery of life skill. To confront with
the challenges in the changing job environment and also to keep up with the rapid pace of modern life,
life skills are to be honed and nurtured. Apart from the good understanding of the subject, the ability to
communicate what one has in mind alone can take a student to greater heights. In an attempt to develop
the communication skill, thereby, making them employable, the syllabus has been devised and titled as
“Life and Employability Skills”. At the end of the course, the students become viable in the job market
and with the aid of the life skill they have acquired they can maintain their poise and mental equilibrium
even in a stressful work environment.
