 BASIC CONCEPTS
The waveform of voltage at the buses of a power system can be assumed to be purely sinusoidal and of
constant frequency.

If a voltage and a current are expressed as functions of time, such as

v = 141 .4 cos( wt + 30° ) and i = 7 .07 coswt

Their maximum values are obviously Vmax = 141.4 V and Imax = 7.07 A respectively.

The term magnitude refers to root-mean-square (or rms) values, which equal the maximum values
divided by 2. Thus, for the above expressions for v and I

IVI = 100 V and 𝐼 = 5 A

These are the values read b y the ordinary types of voltmeters and ammeters. Another name of RMS value is
effective value
The average power expended in a resistor by a current of magnitude 𝐼 is 𝐼 2 R.

BASIC CONCEPTS
• To express these quantities as phasors , we employ Euler's identity
𝑒 𝑗𝜃 = cosθ + j sinθ, which gives
• cos θ = Re{𝑒 𝑗𝜃 } = Re{cos θ + j sin θ}, where Re means the real part of.

1.1 “BASIC CONCEPTS”
VOLTAGE, CURRENT, AND POWER
Electricity has two fundamental components, the current, or amount of electrical
flow, and the voltage, or electrical pressure pushing the electric flow.
Together, voltage and current determine the amount of power − the rate at
which useful work or light can be produced:
Power = voltage × current
Let us examine the two sinusoids
The starting point of v2 occurs first in time. Therefore, we say that v2 leads v 1
by φ .
Polyphase / Three-phase Sources
Polyphase (in practice,
three-phase) voltage
sources are important for
transmission over the grid,
and for large industrial
loads.

These three sources are 120° out

of phase with each other.

A delta-connected load is also commonly used (note the absence of the
neutral wire).

When the power is periodic with period T, the average power is calculated
over any one period:
