Automotive Electricity and Electronics, 2/e By James D Halderman © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Pearson Prentice Hall - Upper Saddle River, NJ 07458 CIRCUITS • A circuit is a path that electrons travel from a power source (such as a battery) through a load such as a light bulb and back to the power source. FIGURE 4-1 All complete circuits must have a power source, a power path, protection (fuse), an electrical load (light bulb in this case), and a return path back to the power source. Automotive Electricity and Electronics, 2/e By James D Halderman © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Pearson Prentice Hall - Upper Saddle River, NJ 07458 CIRCUITS Parts of a Complete Circuit • Every complete circuit contains the following parts. – A power source. – Protection from harmful overloads. – An insulated path for the current to flow through from the power source to the resistance. – The electrical load or resistance which converts electrical energy into heat, light, or motion. – A ground (return) path for the electrical current from the load back to the power source so that there is a complete circuit. – Switches and controls that turn the circuit on and off Automotive Electricity and Electronics, 2/e By James D Halderman © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Pearson Prentice Hall - Upper Saddle River, NJ 07458 CIRCUITS Parts of a Complete Circuit FIGURE 4-2 The return path back to the battery can be any electrical conductor, such as the metal frame or body of the vehicle.

The switch could also be on the return (ground) path wire. © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Pearson Prentice Hall - Upper Saddle River, NJ 07458 CIRCUITS Open Circuits • An open circuit is any circuit that is not complete, or that lacks continuity. FIGURE 4-4 Examples of common causes of open circuits. Some of these causes are often difficult to find. Automotive Electricity and Electronics, 2/e By James D Halderman © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Pearson Prentice Hall - Upper Saddle River, NJ 07458 CIRCUITS Short to Voltage • If a wire (conductor) or component is shorted to voltage, it is commonly called shorted. • A short-to-voltage is where the power side of one circuit is electrically connected to the power side of another circuit Automotive Electricity and Electronics, 2/e By James D Halderman © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Pearson Prentice Hall - Upper Saddle River, NJ 07458 CIRCUITS Short to Voltage • A short circuit: – Is a complete circuit in which the current bypasses some or all of the resistance in the circuit. – Involves the power side of the circuit. – Involves a copper-to-copper connection. – Is also called a short-to-voltage. – Usually affects more than one circuit. – May or may not blow a fuse.

Automotive Electricity and Electronics, 2/e By James D Halderman © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Pearson Prentice Hall - Upper Saddle River, NJ 07458 CIRCUITS Short to Ground • A short-to-ground is a type of short circuit wherein the current bypasses part of the normal circuit and flows directly to ground. FIGURE 4-7 A short-to-ground affects the power side of the circuit. Current flows directly to the ground return, bypassing some or all of the electrical loads in the circuit. There is no current in the circuit pass the short. Automotive Electricity and Electronics, 2/e By James D Halderman © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Pearson Prentice Hall - Upper Saddle River, NJ 07458 CIRCUITS Short to Ground FIGURE 4-8 Electrical flow through a circuit is similar to water flowing over a waterwheel. The more the water (amperes in electricity), the greater the amount of work (waterwheel). The amount of water remains constant, yet the pressure (voltage in electricity) drops as the current flows through the circuit. Automotive Electricity and Electronics, 2/e By James D Halderman © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Pearson Prentice Hall - Upper Saddle River, NJ 07458 OHM’S LAW • Ohm’s law states: – It requires 1 volt to push 1 ampere through 1 ohm of resistance. Automotive Electricity and Electronics, 2/e By James D Halderman © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Pearson Prentice Hall - Upper Saddle River, NJ 07458 OHM’S LAW FIGURE 4-9 To calculate one unit of electricity when the other two are known, simply use your finger and cover the unit you do not know. For example, if both voltage (E) and resistance (R) are known, cover the letter/(amperes). Notice that the letter E is above the letter R, so divide the resistor’s value into the voltage to determine the current in the circuit. Automotive Electricity and Electronics, 2/e By James D Halderman © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Pearson Prentice Hall - Upper Saddle River, NJ 07458 OHM’S LAW 1. Ohm’s law can determine the resistance if the volts and amperes are known: R = E/I. 2. Ohm’s law can determine the voltage if the resistance (ohms) and amperes are known: E = I x R. 3. Ohm’s law can determine the amperes if the resistance and voltage are known: I = E/R. Automotive Electricity and Electronics, 2/e By James D Halderman © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc.

Pearson Prentice Hall - Upper Saddle River, NJ 07458 OHM’S LAW RELATIONSHIP Ohm’s Law Applied to Simple Circuits • Using Ohm’s law, we can calculate the number of amperes that will flow through the wires and the resistor. • Remember, if two factors are known (volts and ohms in this example), the remaining factor (amperes) can be calculated using Ohm’s law. Automotive Electricity and Electronics, 2/e By James D Halderman © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Pearson Prentice Hall - Upper Saddle River, NJ 07458 OHM’S LAW RELATIONSHIP Ohm’s Law Applied to Simple Circuits I = E/R = 12 V/4 Ω The values for the voltage (12) and the resistance (4) were substituted for the variables E and R, and I is thus 3 amperes (12/4 = 3).

Pearson Prentice Hall - Upper Saddle River, NJ 07458 WATT’S LAW • Electricity can also be expressed in a unit of power called a watt and the relationship is known as Watt’s law, which states: – A watt is a unit of electrical power represented by a current of 1 ampere through a circuit with a potential difference of 1 volt.
