LAB report 9

In this laboratory experiment, I explored the intricate behaviors of troubleshooting circuits, a foundational aspect of electrical engineering that blends theoretical knowledge with practical application. The primary objective was to identify and understand different types of circuit faults, such as short circuits, open circuits, and hidden resistors, across various configurations including series, parallel, and series-parallel circuits. This endeavor aimed to deepen my understanding of Ohm’s Law, Kirchhoff's Voltage Law (KVL), and Kirchhoff's Current Law (KCL), alongside the practical skills of circuit analysis and fault diagnosis using diagnostic tools like Multisim simulation software.

Due to my absence during the scheduled lab session, I undertook this lab independently on a subsequent Thursday using OpenLab. This self-directed approach necessitated rigorous problem-solving and a deeper engagement with the material, enhancing my troubleshooting skills and my ability to work independently, which are invaluable in the field of electrical engineering.
