Basic Electrical Theory
The Basic Electrical Theory 4 hour PDH online course is a part of the Electrical category courses. This course describes basic electrical concepts and introduces electrical terminology. The course looks at the fundamental origins of electricity, starting from the forces within an atom. It introduces the First Law of Electrostatics, terminology and units of measurement. It discusses methods of producing voltage and describes magnetism and magnetic circuits.
This course is based on Module 1, “Basic Electrical Theory” of the Department of Energy Publication DOE-HDBK-1011/2-92, “Electrical Science”.
This course is intended for use by electrical engineers, design and construction professionals, students and others interested in learning about basic electrical theory.
