One method for analyzing electrical circuits is the Superposition Theorem. It is applicable to circuits that have several independent sources of voltage or current. The theorem basically enables us to dissect the functioning of the circuit and examine the role played by each source separately. In order to accomplish this, we temporarily disable all other […]

Norton’s Theorem: Working and Calculations Explained
Nortons Theorem, like Thevenin’s Theorem, offers a technique for streamlining complex circuits. It enables us to swap out complicated circuits with much simpler equivalents that just require one resistor and one source of current or voltage. This equivalent circuit is made up of, In basic terms, Norton’s Theorem reduces a complicated network of wires, resistors, […]
Thevenin’s Theorem: Working and Calculations
With the help of Thevenin’s Theorem, we can simplify a complicated circuit with several resistors and sources into a much simpler “equivalent circuit.” The total voltage and total resistance of the original circuit are represented by a single voltage source and resistor, respectively, in this analogous circuit. In the past three tutorials, we have looked […]
