ABSTRACT
The laws which determine the currents and voltage drops in d.c. networks are: (a) Ohm’s law (see Chapter 2), (b) the laws for resistors in series and in parallel (see Chapter 5), and (c) Kirchhoff’s laws (see Section 13.2 following). In addition, there are a number of circuit theorems which have been developed for solving problems in electrical networks. These include:
(i) the superposition theorem (see Section 13.3), (ii) Thévenin’s theorem (see Section 13.5), (iii) Norton’s theorem (see Section 13.7), and (iv) the maximum power transfer theorem (see Section
13.9).
