Introduction to Electricity

Introduction to Electricity

This course explains the fundamentals of electricity, including voltage, current, magnetism, and Ohm’s Law. It introduces inductance, capacitance, and resistance, and discusses the basics of dc circuits, including series, parallel, and series-parallel. It continues with the fundamental components that control circuit current and voltage, their applications, and their associated symbols. This course has no prerequisites. Introduction to Electricity is available in online format only.
