Stephen Brooks is a Chartered Electrical engineer who has worked in the electrical power utility industry for over 30 years as a design engineer, commissioning engineer and construction project manager.
This module has been written to teach non-engineers the basics of electrical power engineering, and will also act as a useful revision tool for electrical graduate engineers or those engineers new to the industry.
The course uses detailed illustrations & simple explanations to convey the topics involved.
Future modules will develop these basic engineering ideas further and use them to show how an electrical power utility system is designed, constructed, tested and operated.
Who this course is for:
- people without an engineering background
- graduate electrical engineers
- school pupils

Stewart Cambridge –
Very dry. Entirely made of Powerpoint slides. Only theory, but not the kind of theory which gives you understanding. Just lots of facts. So it is a bit like learning / reading a phone book. The facts don’t feel connected to anything. For example, in the final module we learned about 3 types of power, but what does that even mean? Which power is the kind of power which makes wheels turn and lights light?
Zachary Baker –
just trying to grasp basic electric principles. The laws sections were good but some of the component sections were over my head.
Martin Ross Baker –
The coarse is lacking in details.
Tammaraya Bagale –
The course is good. the detailed explanation regarding the power chapter is necessary.
Nitish Ashley SOHATEE –
This course took me back to the student years of learning physics and later on engineering. Good to have learnt this again.thank you
Gordon Matthews –
This course is a good introduction / refresher on the basics of electrical engineering principles
Nerielle Ebora –
very easy to follow and understand.
Harsha Madhusanka Weerasinghe –
Though these are simple electrical theories he does a good explanation.
David Hatfield –
The visual depictions further explaining the lessons are most valuable.
Bilal Daoudi –
Simple illustrated examples made it easy. thx
Loren Bills –
Great explanations of the basics. Wish I had watched this before class at DeVry
Mohammed AL-Busaidi –
good
