SuperPosition Theorem
Super Position Theorem
• In any multisource complex network consisting of linear
bilateral elements, the voltage across or current through any
given element of the network is equal to sum of the individual
voltages or currents produced independently across it by
considering each source independently at a time.
• Here while considering each source at a time, the remaining
sources are replaced by open circuit or short circuit condition.
The voltage source is replaced by the short circuit and the
current source is replaced by open circuit.
