Course Description

This course is the second of two which will lay the foundation for all levels of study in the electricity/electronics field. It is designed to utilize a lecture/lab format to cover basic concepts of alternating current (AC) circuits. It is a continuation of ELTR 1004. Such topics as fundamental sine-wave analysis and measurement, electro-magnetics, AC power, inductance, capacitance, reactive circuits, impedance, resonance, and passive filters will be discussed.
