Ohm's Law
 The potential difference (voltage) across an ideal
conductor is proportional to the current through it.
The constant of proportionality is called the
"resistance", R. Ohm's Law is given by: V = I R
where V is the potential difference between two
points which include a resistance R.
Kirchhoff's Laws
Kirchhoff's circuit laws are two equalities that
deal with the conservation of charge and energy
in electrical circuits.
There basically two Kirchhoff's law :-
1. Kirchhoff's current law (KCL) – Based on
principle of conservation of electric charge.
2. Kirchhoff's voltage law (KVL) - Based on
principle of conservation of energy.
The current entering any junction is equal to
the current leaving that junction. i1 + i4 =i2 + i3
Kirchhoff's current law (KCL)
Kirchhoff's voltage law (KVL)
The sum of all the voltages around the loop is
equal to zero. v1 + v2 + v3 - v4 = 0
Mesh Analysis
Mesh analysis (or the mesh current method) is
a method that is used to solve planar circuits for
the currents (and indirectly the voltages) at any
place in the circuit. Planar circuits are circuits that
can be drawn on a plane surface with
no wires crossing each other.
Mesh analysis works by arbitrarily assigning mesh
currents in the essential meshes. An essential
mesh is a loop in the circuit that does not contain
any other loop.
Example
A circuit with two meshes.
Apply KVL to each mesh. For mesh 1,
For mesh 2,

Nodal Analysis
In electric circuits analysis, nodal analysis, node-
voltage analysis, or the branch current
method is a method of determining the voltage
(potential difference) between "nodes" (points
where elements or branches connect) in
an electrical circuit in terms of the branch currents.
Nodal analysis is possible when all the circuit
elements branch constitutive relations have an
admittance representation.
Kirchhoff’s current law is used to develop the
method referred to as nodal analysis

Superposition Theorem
 The total power delivered to a resistive element must
be determined using the total current through or the
total voltage across the element and cannot be
determined by a simple sum of the power levels
established by each source
For applying Superposition theorem:-
 Replace all other independent voltage sources with
a short circuit (thereby eliminating difference of
potential. i.e. V=0, internal impedance of
ideal voltage source is ZERO (short circuit)).
 Replace all other independent current sources with
an open circuit (thereby eliminating current. i.e. I=0,
internal impedance of ideal current source is infinite
(open circuit).
Example:- Determine the branches
current using Superposition theorem.
Solution:
 The application of the superposition theorem is shown
in Figure 1, where it is used to calculate the branch
current. We begin by calculating the branch current
caused by the voltage source of 120 V. By substituting
the ideal current with open circuit, we deactivate the
current source, as shown in Figure 2.

Thevenin's theorem
Thevenin's theorem for linear electrical networks
states that any combination of voltage
sources, current sources, and resistors with two
terminals is electrically equivalent to a single
voltage source V and a single series resistor R.
Any two-terminal, linear bilateral dc network can
be replaced by an equivalent circuit consisting of a
voltage source and a series resistor
Calculating the Thévenin
equivalent
 Sequence to proper value of RTh and ETh
 Preliminary
◦ 1. Remove that portion of the network across
which the Thévenin equation circuit is to be found.
In the figure below, this requires that the load
resistor RL be temporarily removed from the
network.
 Conclusion:
◦ 5. Draw the
Thévenin equivalent
circuit with the portion
of the circuit
previously removed
replaced between the
terminals of the
equivalent circuit.
This step is indicated
by the placement of
the resistor RL
between the
terminals of the
Thévenin equivalent
Insert Figure 9.26(b)
Norton theorem
Norton's theorem for linear electrical networks
states that any collection of voltage
sources, current sources, and resistors with two
terminals is electrically equivalent to an ideal
current source, I, in parallel with a single resistor.
Any two linear bilateral dc network can be
replaced by an equivalent circuit consisting of a
current and a parallel resistor.
Calculating the Norton equivalent
 The steps leading to the proper values
of IN and RN
 Preliminary
◦ 1. Remove that portion of the network
across which the Norton equivalent circuit
is found
◦ 2. Mark the terminals of the remaining
two-terminal network
Maximum power transfer
theorem
The maximum power transfer theorem states
that, to obtain maximum external power from a
source with a finite internal resistance, the
resistance of the load must be equal to the
resistance of the source as viewed from the output
terminals.
A load will receive maximum power from a linear
bilateral dc network when its total resistive value
is exactly equal to the Thévenin resistance of the
network as “seen” by the load
