Basic Fundamentals of Electricity and DC Circuit Analysis (Ohio Timed & Monitored Video)
Credit: 4 CPD
Subject Matter Expert: Graham Van Brunt, P.E.
In Basic Fundamentals of Electricity and DC Circuit Analysis , you'll learn ...
- The fundamental concepts of electrical direct current circuits, which form the basis to all electrical/electronic systems
- Ohm's Law and its importance in current, voltage, and impedance
- Kirchhoff's Laws and how they help in analyzing and metering circuits
Overview
To meet the Ohio Board's intent that online courses be "paced" by the provider, a timer will be used to record your study time. You will be unable to access the quiz until the required study time of 255 minutes has been met.

Duration: 255 minutes
This course examines Ohm's Law, Series and Parallel Circuits, the first, and perhaps most important, relationship between current, voltage, and impedance, Ohm’s Law, and its relevance to Series and Parallel Circuits. Subsequently this will lead to the development of Kirchhoff's Laws as they help to further analyze Network Analysis & Metering Circuits.
Conductors and Insulators are investigated along with their connected components, Capacitors, Inductors and how they are influenced by Electromagnetism.
Specific Knowledge or Skill Obtained
This course teaches the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Fundamental electrical concepts, such as Ohm’s Law, Power, and Parallel Circuits
- Circuit Theorems, including Thevenin, Norton, and Superposition
- Conductors and insulators and their connected components
- How electromagnetism influences electrical components
- Kirchhoff’s Laws and their relevance and applicability in electrical concepts
Certificate of Completion
You will be able to immediately print a certificate of completion after passing a multiple-choice quiz consisting of 24 questions. CPD credits are not awarded until the course is completed and quiz is passed.
