Introduction

Current

"Current" in an electrical circuit refers to the flow of electric charge through a conductor, such as a wire. It is a measure of the amount of electric charge passing a particular point in a circuit per unit of time and is usually measured in Amperes (A).

Transient analysis

The aim of the transient analysis is to understand how the circuit behaves under different conditions, such as changes in load, fault conditions, and switching events. By understanding the circuit's transient response, engineers can design circuits that are more stable and reliable.
