This case study examines various electrical and electronic equipment found in homes. It defines electrical equipment as devices that use or generate electricity to transform it into other forms of energy like heat or light. Examples given are electric irons, refrigerators, and toasters. Electronic equipment are defined as components that control electric currents for information processing and system control, using small integrated circuits. The key difference between the two is that electrical equipment works with higher voltages and currents using AC power, while electronic equipment works with lower voltages and currents using DC power. The document then explains how an electric iron works by passing a current through a wire to heat up its sole plate for ironing clothes.
