Series-Parallel Circuits & Delta-Wye Transformation

This module covers series-parallel circuits and delta-wye transformations. It introduces series-parallel configurations and how to compute total resistance and current. Kirchhoff's and Ohm's Laws are used to solve example circuits. Delta and wye networks are defined and the process of converting between them is demonstrated through examples of transforming delta networks to wye and vice versa. Sample exercises provide practice solving for values like total resistance, current, voltages, and power in various series-parallel and delta-wye circuits.
