BASIC ELECTRICITY
OBJECTIVES
 Understand the definition of electricity and electron
 Conventional Flow of Current Vs True Electrons Flow
 Conductors, Insulators and Semiconductors
 Introduction to Alternating Current
 AC Generators
 AC Transformer

3. BASIC ELECTRICITY
POWER PLANT FUNDAMENTAL
What is Electricity?
Electricity is the flow of charge.

4. BASIC ELECTRICITY
POWER PLANT FUNDAMENTAL
Electron Theory
Atoms comprised of
protons, neutrons and
electrons.
A molecule is the smallest
part of matter which can
exist by itself and
contains one or more
atoms.

5. BASIC ELECTRICITYPOWER PLANT FUNDAMENTAL
Conventional Flow of Current Vs Electrons Flow

6. BASIC ELECTRICITYPOWER PLANT FUNDAMENTAL
The ability of the material to either
allow or impede the flow of
electrons.
Electrical Conductivity

7. BASIC ELECTRICITYPOWER PLANT FUNDAMENTAL
CONDUCTOR
An material that allows
the flow of an electrical
current in one or more
directions

8. BASIC ELECTRICITYPOWER PLANT FUNDAMENTAL
An electrical insulator is a material
whose internal electric charges do
not flow freely, and therefore make
it nearly impossible to conduct an
electric current
INSULATOR

9. BASIC ELECTRICITYPOWER PLANT FUNDAMENTAL
Semiconductor
Materials that have the resistance
levels between those of a
conductor and an insulator are
referred to as semiconductors.

10. BASIC ELECTRICITYPOWER PLANT FUNDAMENTAL
Transistors
A transistor is a semiconductor
device used to amplify or switch
electronic signals and electrical
power. It is composed of
semiconductor material usually
with at least three terminals for
connection to an external
circuit.

11. BASIC ELECTRICITYPOWER PLANT FUNDAMENTAL
PROPERTIES OF MAGNET
1. Magnets attract objects of iron, cobalt and
nickel.
2. The force of attraction of a magnet is greater
at its poles than in the middle.
3. Like poles of two magnets repel each other.
4. Opposite poles of two magnets attracts each
other.

12. BASIC ELECTRICITYPOWER PLANT FUNDAMENTAL
Electromagnetism
The interaction of electric currents or fields and magnetic fields.

13. BASIC ELECTRICITY
POWER PLANT FUNDAMENTAL
Introduction to Alternating Current

14. BASIC ELECTRICITY
POWER PLANT FUNDAMENTAL
AC Induction Motors

15. BASIC ELECTRICITY
POWER PLANT FUNDAMENTAL
AC Generators

16. BASIC ELECTRICITY
POWER PLANT FUNDAMENTAL
Transformer
A transformer is to transfers electrical
energy between circuits through
electromagnetic induction
Transformers are used to increase or
decrease the alternating voltages in
electric power applications.
