AMET - 131 Electricity Fundamentals

Credits: 4

Prerequisites
Math 121 or successful completion of two years of high school algebra and/or precalculus.

Electricity Fundamentals covers principles of Direct Current (DC) and Alternating Current (AC), by discovering the operation of common electrical components such as resistors, switches, relays, capacitors, and more within series, parallel, and complex circuits. Additional areas of electrical energy in transformers, electromagnetism, and motors will be analyzed. The mathematical relationship of electrical circuits and how it relates to Ohm’s and Kirchhoff’s Law will be examined. The course will also have a lab component that will reinforce objectives throughout the course.
