Ideal and non-ideal generators. DC circuit and the behaviour of elements in a DC circuit. Ohm's law. Ideal and non-ideal generators. Electric power, work. Power fitting. Joule's law. Complex circuits. Kirchhoff's laws. Voltage divider and current divider. Complex voltage divider. Increasing of the measuring limit of instruments. Law of linear superposition, conditions for its applicability. Analysis of complex active circuits by equivalent transformations. Transfer of ideal generators. Thevenin's theorem and Norton's theorem. Determination of the currents of bridge connections by Thevenin's theorem. AC circuits. Properties and connections of capacitors and coils, impedance. Serial and parallel resonances, filters. Kirchhoff's laws in the frequency domain. AC powers in one- and three-phase systems. Mutual inductance, induction. Induction law.
