RESUME
OF

PROCEDURE
Part
1
The
analysis
of
series-parallel
dc
networks
requires
a
firm
understanding
of
the
basics
of
both
series
and
parallel
networks.
In
the
series-parallel
configuration,
you
will
have
to
isolate
series
and
parallel
configurations
and
make
the
necessary
combinations
for
reduction
as
you
work
toward
the
desired
unknown
quantity.
As
arule,
it
is
best
to
make
a
mental
sketch
of
the
path
you
plan
to
take
toward
the
com-
plete
solution
before
introducing
the
numerical
values.
This
may
result
in
savings
in
both
time
and
energy.
Always
work
with
the
isolated
series
or
parallel
combinations
in
a
branch
before
tying
the
branches
together.
For
complex
networks,
a
carefully
redrawn
set
of
reduced
networks
may
be
re-
quired
to
ensure
that
the
unknowns
are
conserved
and
that
every
element
has
been
properly
included.
