Here’s a Quick Refresh of Basic Electrical Concepts

Electricity is found in two common forms:

AC (alternating current)

DC (direct current).

An electrical circuit has the following three basic components irrespective of its electrical energy form:

• Voltage (volts)

• Ampere (amps)

• Resistance (ohms).

All three are bound together with Ohm’s law, which gives the following relation [...]
