Description
This lab manual, created to accompany Introduction to Electric Circuits: Lab Manual, ninth edition, is suitable for introductory electric circuits courses offered through electrical technologist- and electrical technician-level programs at the college level (primarily those using Introduction to Electric Circuits: Lab Manual 9e). This text is also suitable for use in non-specialist survey courses at the university level.
The manual contains a collection of experiments chosen to cover the main topics taught in foundational courses in electrical theory. Experiments can all be done with inexpensive test equipment and circuit components. Each lab concludes with questions to test students' comprehension of the theoretical concepts illustrated by the experimental results. The manual is formatted to enable it to double as a workbook, to allow students to answer questions directly in the lab manual if a formal lab
write-up is not required.

Herbert W. Jackson published the first edition of Introduction to Electric Circuits in 1959. Known as "the father of the Ontario college system", Jackson taught electronics and electrical engineering technology for over forty years. Jackson was a member of the Ontario Ministry of Education, where he oversaw the creation of the province's community colleges.
Dale Temple teaches electronics engineering technology at the College of the North Atlantic, where he has served as coordinator of the electronics program.
Brian Kelly is formerly an instructor at the College of the North Atlantic. In addition to co-authoring Introduction to Electric Circuits, Kelly created the lab manual and solutions manual that accompany the text.
