The Electrical Circuit Fundamentals Laboratory is equipped with modern measurement and experimentation infrastructure that allows students to learn the fundamental principles of electrical circuits through hands-on experience. Experiments are conducted in the laboratory on direct current (DC) and alternating current (AC) circuits, Kirchhoff's laws, circuit theorems, transient analyses, filter circuits, resonance phenomena, and basic measurement techniques. Students gain valuable experience for engineering applications by developing skills in circuit construction, measurement, error analysis, and interpreting experimental results.
