✦ Synopsis

For courses in DC/AC circuits: conventional flow.

Complete, accessible introductionto DC/AC circuits
Principles of Electric Circuits: Conventional Current Version provides a uniquely clear introduction tofundamental circuit laws and components, using math only when needed forunderstanding. Floyd’s acclaimed coverage of troubleshooting ― combined with exercises,examples, and illustrations ― gives students the problem-solving experience they need to step outsidethe classroom and into a job. The 10th edition has beenheavily modified to improve readability and clarity and to update the text toreflect developments in technology since the last edition. This edition alsoadds new step-by-step procedures for solving problems with the TI-84 Plus CEgraphing calculator.
