Thevenin’s Theorem in electric circuits

After reading this Thevenin’s theorem topic of electric or network circuits, you will understand the theory, and also able to apply it in ac and dc circuits numerical problems.


Thevenin’s theorem states that for two terminal network NA containing linear & bidirectional elements and independent sources is equivalent to a simple network containing an independent voltage source VTh (called as Thevenin voltage) in series with the resistance RTh (called as Thevenin resistance). The Thevenin equivalent circuit for network NA shown below in Figure 1.

Mesh Analysis in Network theory

After reading this Mesh Analysis topic of electric or network circuits, you will understand the theory and also able to apply it in numerical problems.


A mesh is a loop which does not contain any inner loop. Mesh analysis is only applicable to a planar network. A planar network is the one that can be drawn in a plane with no branches crossing one another.

Superposition Theorem in electric circuits

After reading this Superposition theorem topic of electric or network circuits, you will understand the theory, limitations, also able to apply it in ac and dc circuits numerical problems.


Superposition theorem states that in a linear bilateral network containing more than one independent source, the response in any element is the sum of the response obtained with one source acting at a time and other source being deactivated. Deactivation means all the independent sources are replaced by their internal resistances i.e. voltage source replaced by a short circuit and current source replaced by an open circuit while retaining all the dependent sources as they are.
