DC CIRCUITS – MEASUREMENTS
1.2.1 OBJECTIVE
To verify experimentally the theoretical calculations performed in Section 1.1 DC CIRCUITS –
CALCULATIONS above.
1.2.2 DISCUSSION
In circuits there are junction points (nodes) where wires meet and are joined together. According to Kirchoff’s
Current Law (KCL) the sum of all currents at the node equals zero. In other words, the sum of all currents
entering the node is equal to the sum of all currents exiting the node. The physical reason behind this is that
energy cannot be stored in the node, so all electrons arriving at the junction must quickly leave. The following
procedures attempt to verify KCL.

DC POWER – CALCULATIONS
1.3.1 OBJECTIVE
To calculate the power dissipated in a direct current resistor and show that the power dissipated in a load is
equal to the power supplied by the source (discounting any losses).
1.3.2 DISCUSSION
The power source supplies electrical energy to a load where the energy is transformed into useful work. In the
realm of electricity, useful work is denoted by the movement of electrons (electric current) at the load. POWER
is the rate at which work is performed. An electromotive force of one volt producing one ampere of current
through a one ohm resistance produces one watt of electric power. This relationship between voltage, current,
resistance and power is summarized with the following equations:
P = VI ; P = I2R ; P = V2/R (Watts)
When electric energy is supplied to a resistor, that energy is immediately converted to heat energy, resulting in a
physical rise in temperature of the resistor. The greater the amount of power supplied to the resistor, the greater
the amount of heat generated in the resistor and thus the larger the rise in temperature. Since resistors are
manufactured to meet a specific operating temperature at rated power and voltage levels, they are constructed to
be physically large enough to dissipate the required heat energy. To avoid unacceptable temperatures, resistors
that are required to dissipate significant amounts of electric power must be made with a large surface area.
Increasing the physical size of a resistor improves both convection and radiation, the two primary means by
which heat is dissipated.

Vrms AC source)? What is the ‘hot’ resistance of the lamp? What is the ‘cold’ resistance? What current does
the lamp draw at the instant after energization (i.e. while the resistance is still ‘cold’)? What power does the
lamp dissipate at that instant?

DC POWER – MEASUREMENTS
1.4.1 OBJECTIVE
To measure the power dissipated by resistors in DC networks and verify that the law of conservation of energy
requires that the power dissipated by any number of resistive elements be equal to the power supplied by the
source (when losses are neglected).
1.4.2 DISCUSSION
As stated previously, power in a DC circuit is related to the applied voltage and resulting current by the
following expression:
Power, P = VI
(watts)
In a resistor, electric energy is converted to heat energy. The presence of heat energy creates a rise in the
ambient temperature of the resistor and its surroundings. The rate at which the heat energy can be dissipated
from the resistor to the surrounding environment is directly related to the physical size of the resistor.
Converting electric energy to heat can be useful for many things, including the resistive heating elements in
electric hot water heaters, electric ovens, etc.
