Electrical and Electronic Engineering Careers
All engineers draw from the fundamentals of
science and mathematics. They design and work
with electrical, electronic, electro-optical, and
electromechanical devices, circuits, and systems.
Engineering is a discipline that integrates many
disciplines, such as physics, chemistry,
mathematics, computer software and hardware,
solid-state electronics, communications,
electromagnetics and optics, signals and signal
processing, systems science, reliability,
engineering economics, manufacturing and many
more.

AC Power / Voltage Generation
Power Plants generate Electricity at very
high voltage levels to reduce cable size and
because of voltage losses in transporting it
long distances to reach customers. It is stepped
down through transformers to 240 VAC at the home

Circuit Breaker / Fuses
Electricity from the transformer connect first
through the electric meter then through the
breaker box to protect the house from overload or
short conditions. A breaker box can either have
fuses or resettable breakers. The breaker box
routes either 240 VAC or 120 VAC electricity to
different places.

Circuit Breaker / Fuses
Circuit Breaker A circuit breaker Is like a light
switch. If it is overloaded the switch
will overheat and click open. When it cools down
the switch can be reset.
Fuses A Fuse is like a light bulb. It will pass
electricity until it is overloaded, then the
metal fuse link will burn open.

House Wiring
A house is wired with heavy gauge wire to handle
120 Volts AC in order to power high wattage
devices. A circuit breaker or fuse is used to
protects the wire from getting too hot, and
possibly starting a fire. House Items are rated
in wattage, but the fuse is rated in amps. How
do we know if we are going to overload our fuse
or breaker box?

Batteries Types
  • Zinc-carbon battery - Also known as a standard
    carbon battery, zinc-carbon chemistry is used in
    all inexpensive AA, C and D dry-cell batteries.
    The electrodes are zinc and carbon, with an
    acidic paste between them that serves as the
    electrolyte.
  • Alkaline battery - Used in common Duracell and
    Energizer batteries, the electrodes are zinc and
    manganese-oxide, with an alkaline electrolyte.
  • Lithium photo battery - Lithium, lithium-iodide
    and lead-iodide are used in cameras because of
    their ability to supply power surges
  • Lead-acid battery - Used in automobiles, the
    electrodes are made of lead and lead-oxide with a
    strong acidic electrolyte (rechargeable).
  • Nickel-cadmium battery - The electrodes are
    nickel-hydroxide and cadmium, with
    potassium-hydroxide as the electrolyte
    (rechargeable).
  • Nickel-metal hydride battery - This battery is
    rapidly replacing nickel-cadmium because it does
    not suffer from the memory effect that
    nickel-cadmiums do (rechargeable).
  • Lithium-ion battery - With a very good
    power-to-weight ratio, this is often found in
    high-end laptop and cell phones (rechargeable).
  • Zinc-air battery - This battery is lightweight
    and rechargeable.
  • Zinc-mercury oxide battery - This is often used
    in hearing-aids.
  • Silver-zinc battery - This is used in
    aeronautical applications because the
    power-to-weight ratio is good.
  • Metal-chloride battery - This is used in electric
    vehicles
