2 COURSE DESCRIPTION: This theory-only course introduces the students to the fundamental principles and theorems of D.C. (direct current) and A.C. (alternate current) series and parallel resistive circuits. Students will also be introduced to capacitors and their series and parallel circuit combinations in D.C. Electronic circuit simulation software will be used to investigate the behavior of electrical components, test circuits and prove circuit theorems. The practical lab applications of these topics are covered in the course ETEC101 Electronics Shop Practices, recommended to be taken concurrently. COURSE LEARNING OUTCOMES: Upon successful completion, students will be able to: 1. Explain the basic principles of electricity and electronics. 2. Use virtual electronics test equipment to measure voltage, current and resistance. 3. Solve basic D.C. and A.C. series and parallel resistive circuits 4. Use the Thevenin s and Norton s theorems to solve complex resistive circuits. 5. Analyze basic sinusoidal alternating waveforms and parameters. 6. Calculate D.C. and A.C. power. 7. Document test results algebraically and graphically. 8. Interpret test results to verify basic principles and theorems. 9. Use electronic circuit simulation software to test electric circuits as you would in a lab.

STUDENT ACCOMMODATION: All students have the right to study in an environment that is free from discrimination and/or harassment. It is College Policy to provide accommodation based on grounds defined in the Ontario Human Rights Code. Accommodation may include changes or modifications to standard practices. Students with disabilities who require academic accommodations must register with the Centre for Student with Disabilities. Please see the Centre for Students with Disabilities for details. Students requiring accommodation based on human rights grounds should talk with their professors as early as possible. Details are available on the Centennial College website ( ). If students are unable to write an examination due to a medical problem or unforeseen family problems, they should immediately contact their professor or program Chair for advice. In exceptional and well documented circumstances (e.g. unexpected family problems, serious illness, or death of a close family member), students should be able to write a make-up examination to replace an examination missed. USE OF DICTIONARIES Dictionaries are allowed to be used during lectures and laboratory exercises. Dictionaries are not allowed to be used during tests and final exam. 8/21/2009 THIS COURSE ADHERES TO ALL COLLEGE POLICIES (See College Calendar) Page 3

4 C Course Title: Electric Circuits 1 CENTENNIAL COLLEGE Course Code: ETEC 103 College Policies POLICY STATEMENTS The following statements are selected from Centennial College policies approved by the Board of Governors. Student Responsibilities Students are expected to know the contents of the course outline and to discuss with the professor any areas where clarification is required. Students should keep all course outlines for each course taken at Centennial College. These may be used to apply for transfer of credit to other educational institutions. A fee may be charged for additional or replacement copies. Other Policies Students should familiarize themselves with all College Policies that cover students rights, responsibilities, and the Academic Appeal process. For further information, consult the Academic Matters Section in the full-time and Continuing Education calendars. The Academic Appeal Application form is available from any Enrolment Services Office. Proof of Student Status Students must produce official photo identification at any time during the semester when requested to do so by any professor. (The official piece is the Centennial Student Card.) Continuing Education students do not have Centennial Student Cards, and so they may use other forms of photo identification, such as a driver s license, health card, or other government-issued photo identification. Final Examinations When writing a test or examination, students must put their official photo-id cards in full view for review by the invigilator. Students who do not have official photo-id will be permitted to write the examination with a substitute photo-id, but they will be required to produce photo-id at the program or department office within 24 hours or the next business day following the examination, or else the examination results will be void. More Final Examination Policies are available at Academic Progression Policy for Diploma and Certificate Programs: College Academic Standings will be applied. Calendar. Please see Academic Policies and Procedures, Full-Time Faculty Consultation Professors are available to see students outside of class time. Students can contact professors via voice mail, , or through their program or department office. Information regarding how to contact teachers will be provided at the beginning of the course and is also available in the program or department office. Human Rights Statement It is the policy of the College that all programs will strive for a learning, teaching, and working environment that promotes inclusion, understanding, and respect for all students and employees, consistent with the Ontario Human Rights Code and Centennial College's Statement of Diversity. 8/21/2009 THIS COURSE ADHERES TO ALL COLLEGE POLICIES (See College Calendar) Page 4
