Università Roma Tre

Review of electromagnetism fundamentals, basic principles and theorems for the analysis of electric and magnetic circuits. Representation of sinusoidal electric quantities, definition of circuit impedance and analysis of single-phase and three-phase circuits; instantaneous power, active power and power factor in single-phase and three-phase circuits.
Instruments and methods for measuring current, voltage, active power, power factor and energy in single-phase and three-phase circuits.
Basic principle and operating characteristics of power transformers.
Theory of the rotating magnetic field; basic structure and operating characteristics of induction and synchronous machines.
Components and systems being used in power plants devoted to either generation or transportation or distribution of the electric energy; protection against either overvoltages or overcurrents; sizing of low-voltage secondary-network systems; power-factor correction; protective grounding and safety-related aspects in power distribution systems.
