Norton’s Theorem Statement
Let us look at the official statement of Norton’s Theorem
Norton’s theorem states that any linear circuit can be simplified to an equivalent circuit consisting of a single current source and parallel resistance that is connected to a load.
Now we will study the meaning of this statement through some circuit diagrams.
Norton’s Theorem
Electrical engineering widely uses different theorems and laws to simplify the circuits involved in this field. One such theorem is known as Norton’s Theorem which is used for analysing linear circuits in electrical engineering. In this article, we will study what is Norton’s Theorem, what is the statement of this theorem, and what the circuit implementation of this theorem looks like. We will also study the step-by-step Procedure for applying Norton’s theorem to our circuit and see how it can determine IN or ISC.
Once we have successfully discussed the advantages and applications of this theorem, we will proceed to see the limitations of this theorem. Some solved examples have been solved for a better understanding of the theorem. The article concludes with some frequently asked questions that readers can refer to.
