Automotive Light Vehicles: Electrical

Light Vehicles subject guide

ClickView: Electricity and electronics

This programme uses 3-D animation and live action to make basic electrical circuits come to life. The properties of series, parallel, and series-parallel circuits are easy to grasp when you can see the electrons flow through each circuit leg in each circuit type. Ohm’s Law is illustrated with animated pie charts and basic calculations that isolate each section of the circuit. A must for introductory electricity-electronics, auto mechanics, and technology courses.

 

This live-action video introduces the basics of electricity. Computer animation adds interest and excitement as the program comes to life in its coverage of atoms, conductors, insulators, free electrons, voltage, current, resistance, magnetism, attraction-repulsion, electromagnets, a simple circuit, and other electrical principles. Ideal for courses in electricity, physics, science, automotive, and technology.

Australian Standards

For example: SA TR IEC 60783

Summary:
Adopts IEC/TR 60783, Ed. 1.0 (1984), which provides general rules for all external wiring and connectors which are used for interconnecting the traction components and sub-systems. The rules will be applicable to the heavy current, the light current and the signal harnesses.
