Many introductory books on electricity try to relate voltage to water pressure, electric current to water flow, and resistance to changes in pipe volume.

I came to engineering by way of the technician route. I learned electronics in a technical school and was taught that current flow was electron flow and all circuit analysis was done that way.

When it comes to electrical circuits, there’s a lot to remember and understand. We've got you covered with this Intro to Circuits BBC Bitesize guide.

ORNL researchers are designing and increasing the capacity of a new type of semiconductor-based circuit breaker, which can ...

In contrast to alternating current, or AC, which, depending on the supply's frequency, switches direction 50 or 60 times per second, the current in DC circuits flows only in one direction.
