Fundamental Electrical Concept and Measuring Units
ENERGY
Energy is defined as the ability to do work. For instance, we’re
all familiar with light, heat, and electrical energy.
TYPES OF ENERGY
• Potential Energy Why Electrical Energy is chosen
• Kinetic Energy over other form of energy?
• Mechanical Energy •Transmission
• Thermal Energy •Distribution
• Light Energy •Conversion
• Electrical Energy
Fundamental Electrical Concept and Measuring Units
What Is Electrical Energy?
Electrical energy is a form of energy resulting from the flow of electric charge
Unit of the electrical energy : Joule (or watt-second).
Example : Lightning, batteries and even electric eels are
examples of electrical energy in action!
What is a Circuit?
Components of a Circuit A circuit is a loop through which
current can flow
Voltage Source : Energy sources are the active elements
which supply electrical energy to the circuits.
One coulomb of charge is the total charge associated with 6.242 X 1018 electrons
6. The law of conservation of charge states that charge can neither be created nor
destroyed, only transferred. Thus the algebraic sum of the electric charges in a
system does not change Valence Band,

Fundamental Electrical Concept and Measuring Units
Types of materials :
•Metals ( < 4 electrons )
•Insulators (> 4 electrons )
•Semiconductors ( 4 electrons )
Fundamental Electrical Concept and Measuring Units
Electric Current This is the rate at which free electrons can be
Electric current Theory made to drift through a materials in a particular
direction.
Voltage
Voltage (or potential difference) is
the energy required to move a unit
charge through an element,
measured in volts (V).
Fundamental Electrical Concept and Measuring Units
Voltage Sources:
An electromotive force (emf) is a force that
establishes the flow of charge (or current) in a
system due to the application of a difference in
potential.

PRACTICAL APPLICATION OF THE MOTION OF ELECTRONS
Electricity Bills
how an electric utility company charges their customers. The cost of electricity
depends upon the amount of energy consumed in kilowatt-hours (kWh). (Other
factors that affect the cost include demand and power factors; we will ignore these
for now.) However, even if a consumer uses no energy at all, there is a minimum
service charge the customer must pay because it costs money to stay connected
to the power line. As energy consumption increases, the cost per kWh drops. It is
interesting to note the average monthly consumption of household appliances for a
family of five, shown in Table 1.3.
PRACTICAL APPLICATION OF THE MOTION OF ELECTRONS
Electricity Bills
Example Problem-1: A homeowner consumes 700 kWh in January. Determine
the electricity bill for the month using the following residential rate schedule:
Base monthly charge of 20 tk.
First 100 kWh per month at 10 tk/kWh.
Next 100 kWh per month at 12 tk/kWh.
Over 200 kWh per month at 15 tk/kWh.
Solution:
We calculate the electricity bill as follows.
Base monthly charge =20 tk
First 100 kWh = (10 x 100) = 1000 tk
Next 100 kWh = (12 x 100) = 1200 tk
Remaining 500 kWh = (15 x 500) = 7500 tk
Total charge _= 9720 tk
HOME WORK
Practice Problem : A coil consists of 7000 turns of
copper wire having a cross-sectional area of 0.5mm 2.
The mean length per turn is 50cm and the resistivity
of copper is 0.02 µΩ-m. Find the resistance of the
coil.
