• DC-voltage - Direct current
• Alternating current - Alternating current
• Three-phase
• Analog circuits
• Digital circuits
• Electrical machines

After passing the course, the student should:

• be able to account for current issues within the electrical engineering application fields in the society
• calculate and measure electric units in circuits
• account for how inductive and capacitive circuits influence effect
• account for the most important rules and the components for electricity safeity
• explain, connect and verify amplifier and logic circuits.
• account for hold circuits and flip-flops
• choose sensors for different applications
• account for different pneumatic components and their function and application
• program a simple PLC and document its function

• based on a given assignment in groups suggest a solution to an electrical and/or control-based problem
• be able to seek knowledge outside the reading list and to evaluate the found sources
• where appropriate be able to dimension and choose components for the suggested solution
• be able to write a group report be able to carry out an oral presentation
• be able to reflect on his/her own action in the group
• be able to reflect on the cooperation of the group
• be able to reflect on how the two points above influenced the results of the group

If the course is discontinued, students may request to be examined during the following two academic years.

• LAB1 - Laboratory Work, 4.5 credits, grading scale: A, B, C, D, E, FX, F
• PRO1 - Project, 3.0 credits, grading scale: P, F
• TEN1 - Examination, 3.0 credits, grading scale: A, B, C, D, E, FX, F

Based on recommendation from KTH’s coordinator for disabilities, the examiner will decide how to adapt an examination for students with documented disability.

The examiner may apply another examination format when re-examining individual students.

A Pass grade in the entire course requires at least grade E on TEN1, at least grade E on LAB1 and P on PRO1. The course grade is given as the weighted mean of TEN1 and LAB1 according to formula: ((TEN1*3) + (LAB1*4.5))/7.5, where grades correspond to numbers according to the following: E = 1; D = 2; C = 3; B = 4 and A = 5.

• All members of a group are responsible for the group's work.
• In any assessment, every student shall honestly disclose any help received and sources used.
• In an oral assessment, every student shall be able to present and answer questions about the entire assignment and solution.
