Network Theorems

The document discusses fundamental theorems in circuit theory, focusing on Thevenin's and Norton's theorems, which simplify the analysis of electrical circuits. Thevenin's theorem allows for the replacement of a complex circuit with a simple equivalent circuit consisting of a voltage source and a series resistor, while Norton's theorem does the same with a current source and parallel resistor. Additionally, the document covers the maximum power transfer theorem, which states that maximum power is transferred when the load resistance equals the internal resistance of the source network.
