Course objective is to introduce students to the terminology of electrical engineering, the basic physical laws of electrostatics and to enable students to solve electric circuits of time constant currents. Students are also trained for the calculation of basic parameters of the consumer in such networks, resistors and capacitors.

Students who successfully master the course will be able: -to calculate the capacitance of a simple homogeneous symmetric structure (e.g. coaxial cable with several layers of dielectrics) -to calculate the resistance of homogeneous multilayer structure - to solve simple electric circuit of time constant current - to calculate the maximum power of elements in the network and protect them from burning out

Definition of electric field and electrostatic field. The electric field vector. Gauss's law. Voltage and electric field potential. Dielectrics and conductors in electrostatic field. Boundary conditions. Capacitance and capacitors. Energy and forces in electrostatic field. Vector current density. The intensity of the electrical current. Kirchhoff's law. Ohm's law and resistors. Serial and parallel connection of resistors. Joule's law. Generators and their characteristics. Simple circuit. Solving electrical networks. Some of the theorem of electrical networks.

Lectures are held with occasional video presentations. Inductive method is applied in the lectures. Student knowledge is formed based on many little examples, which grows into engineering intuition over time.
