Principles of Electrical Engineering

Niveau

Introduction

Learning outcomes of the courses/module

The students are able to:
• Reproduce and explain definitions of current and voltage, electric and magnetic field as well as Ohm's law and electromagnetic induction
• Describe quantum mechanical processes of charge transport in electric semiconduc-tors qualitatively and apply them to the photoelectric effect
• Read plans and data sheets of electric power engineering
• Understand basic principles of control systems and interpret the parameters of direct,
alternating and three-phase current
• Describe the function and operating behavior of electrical machines
• Set up electrical circuits in the laboratory, operate measuring equipment and visual-ize measurement results
• Question and analyze the technical interrelationships of an extensively described and
delimited task in the field of electrical engineering and reproduce a solution with a given structure
