15A99301 Basic Electrical and Electronics Engineering - 1 PDF

The document is an exam for a Basic Electrical and Electronics Engineering course covering three units: 1) Circuit analysis concepts including Ohm's Law, Kirchhoff's Laws, and Thevenin's and maximum power transfer theorems. 2) DC machines including construction and speed control of DC motors. 3) Single and three-phase transformers including their working principles and construction details, as well as single phase operation. The exam consists of two parts - multiple choice and numerical problems - testing knowledge across the three units through calculations, explanations, and diagrams.
