A 220 V – 5 A electric lamp is used for 30
minutes. How much energy does it
require?
Solution :
Voltage (V) = 220 V
Electric current (I) = 5 A
Time (t) = 30 minutes = 30 / 60 hour = 0.5 hour
Electric power (P) :
P = V I = (220)(5 )
P = 1100 Watt
Electric energy E = P t= 1100 x 0.5
Electric energy E = 550 Wh
= 550/1000 KWh
E= 0.55 KWh=0.55 unit

Someone watches TV on average 6 hours each day. The TV is connected to a
220 Volt voltage so that the electric current flows through the TV is 0.5
Amperes. If the electric company charges Rs 2 per unit, then find the cost of
using electric energy for TV for 1 month (30 days).
Given :
Time t = 6 hours x 30days = 180 hours
Voltage (V) = 220 V
Current (I) = 0.5 A
To find: The cost per month
Solution :
Power of TV :
P = V I = 220 x 0.5 = 110 W
Electric energy E for 30 days = P x t for 30days
Electric energy of TV for 30 days= 110 x 180 = 19800 Wh
= 19800/1000 kWh
= 19.8 kWh = 19.8 units
The cost of using electric energy for TV during 1 month =
19.8 units x Rs 2 per unit = Rs.39.60 = Rs 40

Linear Bilateral Active Network
• Linear means a network in which the relation
between voltage and current is straight line.
• Bilateral means the relation between voltage
and current does not change in both the
directions in the network.
• An active network contains at least
one voltage source or current source that can
supply energy to the network indefinitely.
NAZEER-L-EEE-PSGPTC 71
Superposition Theorem
It states that in any linear, active,
bilateral network having more
than one source, the current in
any branch or element is the sum
of the currents obtained from
each source considered separately
and all other sources are replaced
by their internal resistance.
NAZEER-L-EEE-PSGPTC 72
NAZEER-L-EEE-PSGPTC 73
NAZEER-L-EEE-PSGPTC 74
Step 1 – Take only one independent source of voltage or current and
deactivate the other sources.
Step 2 – In the circuit diagram B shown above, consider the source E1 and
replace the other source E2 by its internal resistance. If its internal resistance is
not given, then it is taken as zero and the source is short-circuited.
Step 3 – If there is a voltage source than short circuit it and if there is a
current source then just open circuit it.
Step 4 – Thus, by activating one source and deactivating the other source find
the current in each branch of the network. Taking the above example find the
current I1’, I2’and I3’.
Step 5 – Now consider the other source E2 and replace the source E1 by its
internal resistance r1 as shown in the circuit diagram C.
Step 6 – Determine the current in various sections, I1’’, I2’’ and I3’’.
Step 7 – Now to determine the net branch current utilizing the superposition
theorem, add the currents obtained from each individual source for each
branch.
Step 8 – If the current obtained by each branch is in the same direction then
add them and if it is in the opposite direction, subtract them to obtain the net
current in each branch.
NAZEER-L-EEE-PSGPTC 75
Thevenin’s Theorem
• It states that any linear active
network consisting of independent or
dependent voltage and current source
and the network elements can be
replaced by an equivalent circuit
having a voltage source in series with
a resistance.
NAZEER-L-EEE-PSGPTC 76
NAZEER-L-EEE-PSGPTC 77
NAZEER-L-EEE-PSGPTC 78
Step 1 – First of all remove the load
resistance rL of the given circuit.
Step 2 – Replace all the sources by their internal
resistance.
Step 3 – If sources are ideal then short circuit
the voltage source and open circuit the current
source.
Step 4 – Now find the equivalent resistance at
the load terminals, known as Thevenin’s
Resistance (RTH).
Step 5 – Draw the Thevenin’s equivalent circuit
by connecting the load resistance and after that
determine the desired response.
NAZEER-L-EEE-PSGPTC 79
Norton’s Theorem
It states that in a linear active
network consisting of the
independent or dependent voltage
source and current sources and the
various circuit elements can be
substituted by an equivalent circuit
consisting of a current source in
parallel with a resistance.

NAZEER-L-EEE-PSGPTC 82
Step 1 – Remove the load resistance of the circuit.
Step 2 – Find the internal resistance Rint of the source
network by deactivating the constant sources.
Step 3 – Now short the load terminals and find the
short circuit current ISC flowing through the shorted load
terminals using conventional network analysis methods.
Step 4 – Norton’s equivalent circuit is drawn by keeping
the internal resistance Rint in parallel with the short
circuit current ISC.
Step 5 – Reconnect the load resistance RL of the circuit
across the load terminals and find the current through it
known as load current IL.
NAZEER-L-EEE-PSGPTC 83
Maximum Power
Transfer Theorem
It states that in a resistive load,
being connected to a DC network,
receives maximum power when the
load resistance is equal to the internal
resistance known as (Thevenin’s
equivalent resistance) of the source
network as seen from the load
terminals.
NAZEER-L-EEE-PSGPTC 84
NAZEER-L-EEE-PSGPTC 85
NAZEER-L-EEE-PSGPTC 86
Step 1 – Remove the load resistance of the
circuit.
Step 2 – Find the Thevenin’s resistance (RTH) of
the source network looking through the open-
circuited load terminals.
Step 3 – As per the maximum power transfer
theorem, this RTH is the load resistance of the
network, i.e., RL = RTH that allows maximum
power transfer.
Step 4 – Maximum Power Transfer is calculated.
