Electrical Theory Fundamentals  
     
Course Description:  
Whether you are a civil or mechanical engineer and are interested in learning a little about the fundamentals of electrical science, or it you are an electrical or computer engineer and would like to brush up on the basics, then this course is appropriate for you. This course is suitable for all engineers of any disciplines.
 
This course is taken from the “Department of Energy Fundamentals Handbook for Electrical science”, Volume 1 of 4, Module 1, Basic Electrical Theory. This course describes fundamental electrical concepts and introduces electrical terminology and some of the basic laws of electricity.		  
Learning Objectives:  
Upon successful completion of this course, participants will be able to:
  • How electrons are organized into electron shells around the nucleus of an atom
  • That electrons are held in orbit around the nucleus due to the electrostatic force
  • How electrical potential plays a role in electrical circuits
  • The difference between electron flow and conventional current flow in a circuit
  • The relationship between voltage, current, and resistance
  • How to apply Ohm’s Law to electrical circuit
  • How to compute power in an electrical circuit
  • How inductance measures the ability of a coil to store energy
  • How capacitance and electric charge are related
  • How certain crystals generate and electrical charge via the piezoelectric effect
  • How photons striking the surface of certain materials will cause an electric current via the photoelectric effect
  • The properties of magnetism
  • The role that magnetic flux and magnetic flux density play in magnetism
  • The relationship between magnetism and electrical current
