INTRODUCTION

When a number of network elements are connected together to form a system that consist of seat of interconnected elements performing specific a assigned functions , the called network .

Circuit - An electrically closed network is a called circuit 

SYMBOL REPRESENT 

Resistance - R

Inductance - L

Capacitance - C


Some important definition related to an electric network 

NODE - It is the Junction in a circuit where to or more network elements are connected together 

BRANCH - It is part of the circuit which lies between two junction in a circuit 

LOOP - It is the closed path in the circuit in which no element or node is encountered more than once 

MESH - It is such a loop that contains no other loop within it


CHARACTERISTICS OF NETWORK ELEMENTS 

Linear Characteristics - A linear element shows linear Characteristics of voltage  & current . Thus the parameters of linear elements remains constant. Resistor , Inductors , Capacitors Are Example of  linear Elements.

Non - Linear Characteristics - The current passing through it does not change linearly with the linear charge in applied voltage across it , at a particular Temperature and frequency . 
Thyristors , semiconductors like device , diode , transistors are Example of Non- linear Elements. 


Active Elements - if a circuit element has the capability of enhancing the energy level of an electric signal passing through it , called active elements . 

Passive Elements - The elements are simply allows  the passage of the signal through it without enhancing the energy is , called Passive Elements

Unilateral Elements  - If the magnitude of the current passing through an elements is affected due to change in polarity of the applied voltage .

Bilateral Elements - If the current magnitude remains the same even if the polarity of the applied voltage is reversed . 


SERIES RESISTIVE CIRCUITS 

Resistors are connected in series when they are in such way that there is only one path through which current can flow . Therefore current in a series circuit is the same at all parts in the circuit . The voltage drop across each component in a series circuit depends on the current level and the magnitude resistance . 

HOW TO CURRENT AND VOLTAGE IN A SERIES CIRCUITS 

The total resistance connected across the voltage source 

          series Resistance
      R = R1 + R2 + R3 + R4 ..........

The unit of Resistance in ohms 

HOW TO CURRENT AND VOLTAGE IN A PARALLEL CIRCUITS                                           

                                  PARALLEL CIRCUIT
1/Requ = 1 / R1 + 1 / R2
where , R = resistance  I = current
