summary
● A basic AC resistive circuit consists of a voltage source, conductors, and a resistive load.
● The current is in phase with the applied voltage in a resistive circuit.
● The effective value of AC current or voltage pro- duces the same results as the equivalent DC voltage
● The effective values are the most widely used measurement values.
● Ohm’s law can be used with all effective values.
● AC voltage or current values are assumed to be the effective values if not otherwise specified.
