Module 2: Introduction to Alternating Current and Transformers is an essential guide to the principles of alternating current (AC) and the role of transformers in electrical systems. This volume explores AC theory, electromagnetism, inductance, capacitance, impedance, and transformer fundamentals. With clear explanations and examples, it builds on the concepts introduced in Module 1 and prepares readers for deeper studies in electronics and electrical engineering.
This is the second of 24 modules in the Navy Electricity and Electronics Training Series (NEETS), a comprehensive program originally developed by the U.S. Navy and approved for public release. Each book stands on its own as a self-study manual but is best experienced as part of the complete series, covering everything from basic electricity to advanced radar, communications, and fiber optics.
