Course abstract
The aim of the course is to look to basic concepts of direct current, single and three phase alternating current circuits, magnetic circuits, methods of engineer analysis are presented. In laboratory students learn electrical safety; methods of electrical measurement; connecting to the grid, capturing and analyzing operation parameters of electrical devices. Electronic part presents theoretical introduction to analogous and switch-mode electronic devices. In laboratory semiconductor electronic elements, various diodes and transistors are studied.

Requirements for awarding credit points
Written exam.
Exam consists of:
Two questions of the theoretical part;
The task of the topics learned in the study course in practical works;
The student is admitted to the examination only if all tests are counted.
Description of the organization and tasks of students’ independent work
Preparation for tests and homework.
Criteria for Evaluating Learning Outcomes
Evaluation of study results is based on the student's answers during the examination. It is also possible to get a maximum rating of 10 (excellent) if all the work is done on time, and the student has given the appropriate knowledge.
