ELEC 201 - Alternating Current Theory

Institution:

Flathead Valley Community College

Subject:

Description:

5 credits (Fall Semester) Prerequisite: ELEC 102. This course is a study of three phase alternating current circuits and single and three phase transformers and ma-chines. The theory and operation of three phase wye and delta circuits and the relationship of voltage, current and power in these circuits. The use of phasor algebra in the solution of alternating current problems is stressed as are the characteristics and use of electrical instruments such as voltmeters, ammeters, ohmmeters and watt meters. Stu-dents learn the theory and operation of transformers with single and three phase connections and are introduced to alternating current machines.
