Basic Electrical Theory

SKU: RVI-11479

Duration: 0.50 Hrs

Do you know the difference between current and voltage? This course on basic electrical theory will equip you with the knowledge you need to handle various calculations involving electrical circuits, both AC (alternating current) and DC (direct current). You will learn how to calculate voltage and electrical power in a circuit using Ohm’s Law and Watt’s Law. In this interactive online course, we’ll discuss how to determine the electrical resistance for the wiring in a circuit and the size power unit that will be needed to drive a piece of equipment. Finally, you’ll learn the difference between single- and three-phase power.
