Greetings Friends! We begin today’s lesson with “Troubleshooting Series Parallel Circuits, Part-B in DC Electronics Topic # 9 by the KOGUY. Troubleshooting series parallel circuits is further explored with 2 powerful new tools: "Nodal Analysis" and "Current Analysis".
You will be shown how to "design" circuits, analyze those circuits and then troubleshoot to find solutions when some findings differ from predictions. Useful to field technicians is the analysis of 'point voltages to ground' as well as 'point-to-point' voltage measurements.

Our primary focus in my videos is on “hands-on” training, Why? Because You learn BEST by doing the experiments with your own hands!
