electrical networks
Wired distribution systems
Electrical networks are systems of interconnected electrical components—resistors, capacitors, conductors, power sources—through which current flows.
The term applies to circuits of any scale, from a simple loop on a circuit board to the vast power grid connecting generators to homes and businesses.
Network analysis is fundamental to electrical engineering.
