1 ACADEMIC INTEGRITY

Due to COVID – 19 pandemic, alternative learning sessions must be produced. Even the course is delivered online, as a student you are expected to observe intellectual honesty at all times. This means doing your assignments and term papers yourself, acknowledging indebtedness to sources of original ideas and quoted materials which you used, and taking examinations yourself.

SCHEDULE

The schedule making depends on the schedule given by the memorandum from the university. The time allotment from the syllabus can be also a factor but the huge factor for the scheduling is on the instructor. The instructor can give his/her schedule of dates for submission of different requirements.

1 Lesson 1: Electron Theory

Matter is whatever has mass and volume that occupies space. The fundamental unit of matter is the atom. The atom is basically consisting of the Nucleus and orbits. The orbit contains electron, while the Nucleus contains proton and neutron. Proton and Neutron are often called nucleons because they are found inside the nucleus. The number of protons usually gives the atomic number of an element, while the sum of protons and neutrons gives the atomic mass of an element.

Where: n = the number of the desired orbit of the material

Example 1. Find the maximum number of electron in the 4th orbit

Solution. N = 2n2 = 2 x 42 = 32 electrons.

Example 2. If the maximum number of electron in the orbit is 8, what orbit contains those electron?

Solution. n = sqrt(N/2) = sqrt(8/2) = 2. It means it is in the 2nd Orbit

Electric Current

The electric current is the rate of flow of current at a point per unit of time and is denoted as β€œI” or β€œI” because it is also called Current Intensity. The unit of electrical current is Ampere (A). To produce a one (1) ampere of current, it requires a one coulomb or 6.28 x 1018 Electrons to pass a point in a second. The steady state of current is given by the formula:

𝑰𝑰 = 𝑸𝑸/𝒆𝒆

Where: I – Electric Current

Q – Electric Charge

t - Time (seconds)

Example. When checking through a circuit, it observes that a current of 200 mA is passing through a circuit in 1.2 seconds. Find the total charge in the circuit.

1 Lesson 3: Circuit Parameters The Resistance

The resistance is the opposition given by a material to the flow of electricity. The resistance is denoted as β€œR” and has the unit of ohms (Ξ©).

The Cross Sectional Area of Wires

Wire also offers electrical resistance and the cross sectional area of wire gives a major factor to this. The size of wire is denoted by its cross sectional area such as mm2 for metric, Circular Mil for English and American Wire Gauge (AWG) for US. Mils and Circular mils are often used and the conversion for it is enumerated as follows

1000 𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝐸𝐸 = 1 π‘€π‘€πΈπΈπΈπΈβ„Ž

The Resistance offered by Wires

It would be expected that a wire's electrical resistance would be greater for a longer wire, less for a wire of a larger cross sectional area, and would be expected to depend on the material from which the wire is produced. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

𝑅𝑅 = 𝜌𝜌𝐸𝐸𝐴𝐴 =

Lesson 1: The Ohm’s Law The Ohm’s Law

Ohm’s law is the relationship between Voltage, Current and Resistance. The ohm’s law can be applied in DC circuits as well as AC circuits. It states that β€œthe current flowing in the circuit is proportional to the applied Voltage and inversely proportional to the circuit resistance”. Figure 2.1 shows the different formulas derived from the ohm’s law.

Conditions for Ohm’s Law

Ohm’s Law may be extended either to the entire

circuit or to a circuit section. Ohm’s Law can be applied to DC as well as AC

Circuits. However, in AC circuits, Impedance is used in place of Resistance.

When Ohm’s Law is applied to a branch of a circuit, the branch resistance, voltage or current should be used.

In Ohm’s Law, the temperature must be constant.

Example 1. Find the current I through a resistor of resistance R = 3 Ξ© if the voltage across the resistor is 6 V.

Solution. Current, 𝐼𝐼 = 𝑉𝑉/𝑅𝑅 = 6𝑉𝑉 / 3Ξ© = 𝟐𝟐 πŸ–πŸ–

Example 2. A resistor with a 100 kilo ohms resistance is connected to a 230 volts alternating current. Find the value of the current flowing in the resistor?

1 Introduction The Multimeter

Source: Basic Electrical Engineering By J. Tejada and M. Pascua

A Multimeter or a tester is a necessary tool for an electrical practitioner and technicians. It is used to measure values and is used for trouble shooting. A common Multimeter has 5 parts known as ohmmeter, ammeter, DC voltmeter, AC voltmeter, and continuity/semiconductor tester.

Parts of a Multimeter

1. Pointer – It is the needle indicating the measured value that can be seen on the scale.

2. Scale – It is the list of values to be indicated by the pointer. It is usually consist of three parts, the ohmmeter, ammeter and the voltmeter.

3. Adjustment Screw – It is used to adjust the pointer to zero position.

4. Zero-Ohm adjustment knob – It is used for adjusting the pointer to zero for measuring resistance.

5. Ranges Selector Knob – It is used to choose from different function of the tester, and for selecting the proper multiplier to be used.

6. Test Probe – Are commonly in two colors. Red colored test probe is used for positive terminal while black colored test probe is used for common terminal.

1 Multimeter usage and Maintenance

First and Foremost, Always read the manual oh how to operate the multimeter.

Check if the battery connected is in good condition. Low battery level may affect

the precision of measured values, and also it can affect the internal setting of the multimeter.

Check if the multimeter is set to correct setting and multiplier. Ohmmeter measuring resistance, voltmeter measuring voltage, and ammeter measuring current.

When not in use, Range selector knob must be set on β€œOFF” or the highest voltage range available. It is to ensure that the battery will not drain.

Do not drop or break the multimeter. The multimeter is not designed as shockproof type of device.

Source: Basic Electrical Engineering By J. Tejada and M. Pascua

Things to remember

For Analog ohmmeter, four things must be checked before taking any resistance test and enumerated as follows:

1. Select first the proper multiplier in the function selector. 2. Adjust the pointer to zero reading by shorting the test prods together as shown in

figure. It is necessary because without the zero adjustment, it may affect the accuracy of the measurement.

3. The component under test must be DE ENERGIZED during the test. This is to protect both yourself and the device from the electric current. Must be vigilant to ensure the safety of the device and the one using it.

4. You must not touch the metallic part of the test prods to prevent measuring your own body resistance. Although it is not harmful, the ohmmeter reading will be incorrect.

Reading exercise of Ohmmeter

There are many ways you can measure a specific resistance as long you have proper multiplier for the multimeter read resistance value. Suppose we have a 100 ohm resistor and we have to check the actual value of it, we can usex1, x10, and x100 multiplier as shown in the following figures.

A Voltmeter is used to measure electromotive force. The scale under the ohmmeter readings in the analog Multimeter is used for voltage readings. Common Multimeter has two voltmeter functions: one for AC and one is for DC. The figure shows the set of scales used for measuring electromotive force

Things to remember

For Analog voltmeter, four things must be checked before taking any resistance test and enumerated as follows:

1. Check first the polarity of the source being tested. An analog multimeter is incapable of testing a negative voltage, and if so, it may dislocate the needle of the tester.

2. It must be observed that the test probe will never touch each other when testing. It may cause short circuit.

3. When measuring an unknown voltage using a Voltmeter, it must be set in the highest range and then setting down one by one. This is used to protect the device from measuring values that exceeded the maximum value of the said range.

4. When measuring the voltage drop across a component, it must be tapped in parallel across the component.

Reading exercise of Voltmeter

When measuring voltage, the multiplier must be set in the proper range. Also, the proper range in the multiplier has its own scale in the multimeter screen. In the Philippines, we have a standard voltage of 230v in our outlet. We will try to test it using a multimeter.

Multimeter Display when measuring 230v AC in 250 Multiplier

The needle stops between 200 and 250 in the highest voltmeter scale. It means, the voltage is around 200 to 250. For more precise look, it stops one line after the middle that has a value of 225v. So it means it is measuring 230 volts potential.

An Ammeter is used to measure Electrical Intensity or current. The scale under the ohmmeter readings in the analog Multimeter is used for voltage readings. The following figure shows the set of scales used for measuring electrical current.

Things to remember

For Analog ammeter, four things must be checked before taking any resistance test and enumerated as follows:

1. Check first the polarity of the source being tested. An analog multimeter is incapable of testing a negative current, and if so, it may dislocate the needle of the tester.

2. It must be observed that the test probe will never touch each other when testing. It may cause an open circuit.

3. When measuring an unknown current using an ammeter, it must be set in the highest range and then setting down one by one. This is used to protect the device from measuring values that exceeded the maximum value of the said range.

4. When measuring the current across a component, it must be tapped in series across the component.

Reading exercise of Ammeter

When measuring current, the multiplier must be set in the proper range. Also, the proper range in the multiplier has its own scale in the multimeter screen. A normal ammeter in the multimeter has only 0.25A capacity. If your goal is to measure a value above that, it is required to use a current transformer. We will try to test it using a multimeter.

1 Series – Parallel connection of resistors

are the combination of series circuitry and parallel circuits that is commonly used by technicians to create the best possible circuit design.

Example 1. Find the resistance reading in the ohmmeter given in Figure 4.5A.

Solution. By analysis, The 6 ohms and the 10 ohms are in series with each other. That is also true with 5 ohm and 12 ohm resistors.

Using the equation of resistances in series circuit, the total resistance for the upper branch is

π‘…π‘…π‘ˆπ‘ˆπ‘ˆπ‘ˆπ‘ˆπ‘ˆπ‘ˆπ‘ˆπ‘ˆπ‘ˆ = 6𝛺𝛺 + 10𝛺𝛺 = 16 𝛺𝛺, And for lower Branch,

1 Lesson 3: Network Reduction (WYE-DELTA)

Source: Basic Electrical Engineering By J. Tejada and M. Pascua

In certain circuits resistors are neither in series nor in parallel, so it is difficult to apply the rules for series or parallel circuits. Converting from one circuit type to another may be important for such circuits to simplify the solution.

Example. A circuit consist of three resistors rated: 10 ohms, 12 ohms, and 15 ohms connected in delta. What would be the resistances of the equivalent wye connected load?

Solution.

Series and Parallel Batteries When the batteries are connected in series, their voltages are added up and their

ampere-hour remains the same.

When the batteries are connected in parallel, their ampere-hour is added up and their voltages remain the same.

𝑉𝑉𝑇𝑇 = 𝑉𝑉1 = 𝑉𝑉2 = β‹― = 𝑉𝑉𝑛𝑛 π΄π΄β„Žπ‘‡π‘‡ = π΄π΄β„Ž1 + π΄π΄β„Ž2 + β‹―+ π΄π΄β„Žπ‘›π‘›
