19EET101 / BEEE / R.SENTHIL KUMAR / ASP / EEE 1/17


TOPIC OUTLINE

Electricity?
Voltage, Current,
Resistance
Nature of Current
Ohms Law

19EET101 / BEEE / R.SENTHIL KUMAR / ASP / EEE 2/17


ELECTRICITY COME FROM?

• We buy it from Power Plants


• We can generate it ourselves
 Diesel or gasoline generators
 Generated in our Car
 Generated by home Solar or wind power
• We can get it from Batteries
• Sometimes we get it when we don’t want it
 Lightning

19EET101 / BEEE / R.SENTHIL KUMAR / ASP / EEE 3/17


• It is the push or pressure behind current flow
through a circuit, and is measured in (V) volts.
• Quantitative expression of the potential difference in
charge between two points in an electrical field.

19EET101 / BEEE / R.SENTHIL KUMAR / ASP / EEE 4/17


• Current refers to the quantity/volume of electrical
flow. Measured in Amps (A)
• Flow of Electrons

19EET101 / BEEE / R.SENTHIL KUMAR / ASP / EEE 5/17


• Resistance to the flow of the current. Measured
in Ohms
• It opposes an Electric Current

19EET101 / BEEE / R.SENTHIL KUMAR / ASP / EEE 7/17
NATURE OF CURRENT
• Most power generated is Alternating Current (AC)
power where the current and voltage varies
Sinusoidal with time

• Direct Current (DC) power doesn’t vary with time

• Most consumer products use both AC and DC

19EET101 / BEEE / R.SENTHIL KUMAR / ASP / EEE 8/17


a. DC CURRENT
• DC current is used to power electronics
• DC current is easier to store (batteries)
• DC current is used in mobile applications
• Inverters convert DC to AC

19EET101 / BEEE / R.SENTHIL KUMAR / ASP / EEE 9/17


b. AC CURRENT
• AC current is easier to distribute
Higher voltage and smaller current yields same
power distributed
Transformers make it easy to change voltage
levels so smaller wire can used
• AC is used for most machinery, lights and appliances
• Power supplies convert AC to DC

19EET101 / BEEE / R.SENTHIL KUMAR / ASP / EEE 10/17


BASIC LAWS

• OHMS LAW
• KIRCHOFF’S LAW

19EET101 / BEEE / R.SENTHIL KUMAR / ASP / EEE 11/17


OHMS LAW
• Ohm’s Law explains the relationship between Voltage
(V), Current (I) and Resistance (R)

Definition:
States that the current through a conductor between two
points is directly proportional to the potential difference
across the two points
V= IxR

19EET101 / BEEE / R.SENTHIL KUMAR / ASP / EEE 12/17


OHMS LAW TRIANGLE

• V (E) = I x R

• I=V
R

• R=V
I
