A familiar case is a three terminal network e.g. delta network or star network. 2)In such situations, it is not possible to simplify the network by series and parallel circuit rules. However, converting delta network into star and vice- versa often simplifies the network and makes it possible to apply series parallel circuit techniques. Delta to Star transformation 1)Consider three resistors RA, RB, RC connected in delta to three terminals 1, 2 and 3 as shown in the figure (a). It is desired to replace these three delta connected resistors by three resistors R1, R2, R3 connected in star so that the two networks are electrically equivalent. 2)The two arrangements will be electrically equivalent if resistance between any two terminals of one network is equal to the resistance between the corresponding terminals of the other network.

But before discussing this it is essential to familiarise with some terms: a)Node:- Node is a junction where two or more circuit elements are connected together. b)Branch:- An element or number of elements connected between two nodes constitutes a branch. c)Loop: Loop is any closed part of the circuit. 8

  9. www.ekeeda.com Contact : 9029006464 Email : care@ekeeda.com d)Mesh: Mesh is the most elementary form of the loop and cannot be further divided into other loops. Hence, all the meshes are loops but all the loops are not meshes. KIRCHHOFF’S CURRENT LAW (KCL)  Statement: The algebraic sum all the currents meeting at a junction or node in an electric circuit is zero.  i.e. I = 0  e.g. Consider five conductors carrying currents I1, I2, I3, I4 and I5 meeting at point O as shown below. Assuming the incoming currents to be positive and outgoing currents negative, we have I + (-I ) + I + I + (-I ) = 0 1 2 3 4 5  I + I + I = I + I 1 3 4 2 5 Thus, the above law can also be stated as the sum of currents flowing towards any junction in an electric circuit is equal to the sum of the current flowing away from the junction. 9

  10. www.ekeeda.com Contact : 9029006464 Email : care@ekeeda.com KIRCHHOFF’S VOLTAGE LAW (KVL)  Statement: The algebraic sum of all the voltages in any closed mesh or loop is zero.    Sign Conventions: i.e. IR+ E = 0 a)Sign of a battery:- A rise in voltage is considered as positive, whereas fall in voltage is considered as negative. (a) Rise in Voltage (b) Fall in Voltage b)Sign of I R drop:- If we go through the resistance in the same direction as the current, there is fall in the potential so the sign of voltage drop is negative. If we go opposite to the direction of current flow, there is a rise in potential and hence, this voltage drop should be given negative sign. (a) Fall in Voltage (b) Rise in Voltage Mesh Analysis 1)In this method, KVL is applied to a network to write mesh equations in terms of mesh currents instead of branch currents. 2)Each mesh is assigned a separate mesh current. KVL is then applied to write equations in terms of unknown mesh currents. 3)The number of equations formed is equal to the number of unknown mesh currents. Once the mesh currents are known, the branch currents can be easily determined. 4)Steps to be followed in Mesh Analysis: a)Identify the mesh, assign a direction to it and assign an unknown current in each mesh. 10

  11. www.ekeeda.com Contact : 9029006464 Email : care@ekeeda.com b)Assign the polarities for voltage across the branches. c)Apply KVL around each mesh. d)Solve the simultaneous equations for unknown mesh currents. Advantages: 1)Simpler method as compared to Kirchhoff’s Branch current method. 2)Currents through all the branches of a given network can be found. Disadvantages: 1)If the current through only a particular branch is required, then this method is lengthy. 2)Inconvenient for the circuits containing constant current source. Nodal Analysis 1)In this method, one of the node is taken as the reference node and the potential of all the remaining nodes in the circuit are measured w.r.t. this reference node. 2)For finding out these voltages, KCL is used as the various junctions. Thus for an electrical network having ‘n’ nodes the number of simultaneous equations to be solved is (n-1). 3)Steps to be followed in Nodal Analysis: a)Assuming that network has ‘n’ nodes, assign a reference node and the reference directions and assign node voltages. b)Apply KCL at each node except for references node. c)Solve the simultaneous equations for the unknown node voltages. d)Using these node voltages, find any branch currents required. 11

  14. www.ekeeda.com Contact : 9029006464 Email : care@ekeeda.com Superposition Theorem Statement:- In a linear network containing more than one active source, the resultant current in any element is the algebraic sum of all the currents that would be produced by each source acting alone, all the other sources being replaced by their respective internal resistances. 1)The constant voltage sources are represented by their internal resistance if given. If it is not given replace it by short circuit. 2)The constant current sources are represented by infinite resistance i.e. open circuit. Advantages: 1)The current through a particular branch can be found very quickly. Disadvantages: 1)This method can be used only for those circuits containing more than one source. 2)If currents through all the branches are required then this method is lengthy. Thevenin’s Theorem Statement:- Any two terminal bilateral, linear network containing passive elements can be converted into a single equivalent voltage source known as ‘Thevenin’s voltage source’ in series with a single equivalent resistor known a ‘Thevenin’s resistance’. Steps to be followed in Thevenin’s Theorem: 1)Remove the load resistance RL. 2)Find open circuit voltage VTH across points A and B. 14

  15. www.ekeeda.com Contact : 9029006464 Email : care@ekeeda.com 3)Find the resistance RTH as seen from point A and B with all the sources replaced by their internal resistances. 4)Replace the entire network by voltage source VTH in series with resistance RTH. 5)Find the current through RLusing ohm’s law. V I =R TH +R L TH L . Advantages: 1)It reduces a complex circuit to a simple circuit i.e. single voltage source and a single resistance. 2)It greatly simplifies the portion of the circuit of lesser interest and enables us to view the action of the output part directly. 3)The theorem is used to find the current in a particular branch of a network. Disadvantages: 1)If currents through all the branches are required then this method is lengthy. 15

  16. www.ekeeda.com Contact : 9029006464 Email : care@ekeeda.com Norton’s Theorem Statement:- Any two terminal bilateral, linear network containing passive elements can be converted into a single equivalent current source known as ‘Norton’s current source’ in parallel with a single equivalent resistor known as ‘Norton’s resistance’. Steps to be followed in Norton’s Theorem: 1)Remove the load resistance RL. 2)Find short circuit current IN. 3)Find the resistance RN as seen from point A and B with all the sources replaced by their internal resistance. 4)Replace the entire network by current source IN in parallel with resistance RN. 5)Find the current through RL using current divider rule. R I = I N L SC R +R N L . 16

  17. www.ekeeda.com Contact : 9029006464 Email : care@ekeeda.com Maximum Power Transfer Theorem Statement:- In any two terminal bilateral, linear network containing passive elements maximum power is delivered to a load from a source when the load resistance is made equal to the source resistance. i.e. PLoad is maximum only when RL = RS Proof:- 1)Consider a load resistance RL connected across the terminals A and B of a network which consists of a voltage source ES with internal resistance RS. E 2)The circuit current is I = R +R S L S Power consumed by the load is, 2 S E R 2 ……. (1) P = I R =R +R L L L 2 S L 3)For a given source or circuit ES and RS are constant. Therefore power delivered to the load depends on RL only. Thus, for PL to be maximum dP dR =0 L L 17
