The course we have is closely related to power systems and electrical distribution systems. In this course, we provide the following:
Basic concepts of alternating current (AC).
Basic concepts of the components of the electrical power system.
The importance of power stations (generation stations).
The main source of: voltage (V) - current (I) - frequency (f) - reactive power (Q).
Types of electrical loads.
The difference between resistive loads, inductive loads, and capacitive loads.
The meaning of: resistance, inductive reactance, and capacitive reactance.
Explain how to obtain the frequency (50 Hz) and (60 Hz) in the electrical network through power stations.
The main source of the phase angle (φ) between voltage and current.
The real, practical meaning of the phase angle (φ).
The meaning of the current is lead, lag, and in-phase.
Explain Ohm's law.
The practical reason why the current is leading in the case of a capacitor, lagging in the case of a (conductor) coil, and in-phase in the case of a resistance.
