Introduction

There are many laws and theorems such as Kirchhoff’s law, Ohm’s law, Thevenin Theorem that help us
solve many complex electrical circuit problems.

Thevenin’s theorem states that it is possible to simplify any linear circuit, irrespective of how complex it
is, to an equivalent circuit with a single voltage source and a series resistance.

The advantage of performing the Thevenin conversion to the simpler circuit is that it makes load
voltage and load current easier to solve than in the original network.
The Maximum Power Transfer Theorem states that the maximum amount of power will be
dissipated by a load resistance when that load resistance is equal to Thevenin(V TH) resistance of
the network supplying the power. If the load resistance is lower or higher than the
Thevenin/Norton resistance of the source network, its dissipated power will be less than the
maximum.
