Electrical Engineering Fundamentals I | Lecture 6 Turning Sources Off | Purdue University

In this latest lecture from Dr. Dimitrios Peroulis, Senior Vice President for Partnerships and Online at Purdue University, we explore the concept of turning off certain sources within a circuit to analyze their individual effects. You'll learn the fundamentals of how voltage and current can be 'turned off' using short or open circuits respectively. Dr. Peroulis explains how these techniques can also provide insight into potential issues when such situations occur unplanned in the circuit. However, it's crucial to remember that short circuits can cause severe risks including fires, so they should always be dealt with using utmost caution.
