Prerequisite(s): AET 1050. Utilizes algebraic formulas and methods to solve electrical problems related to AC electrical systems. Covers the calculation of voltage, current, resistance, reactance, impedance, power, VARs, volt-amperes and efficiency for single phase and three phase AC systems. Applies trigonometry, trigonometric functions, complex numbers, and phasors to circuit analysis techniques. Analyzes sine waves, transformers, transformer connections and power factor for single phase and three phase electrical systems. Introduces three phase balanced systems and faults.
