Introduction to Electrical Engineering



I recently applied to a Software Engineering coding boot camp for the second time and I got rejected for the second time. So, what does that mean for me? Easy. It means that whenever a door closes, Allah opens another one and another one. After all, one of His Beautiful names is Al- Fatah( The Opener). Always have good thoughts of Allah as the Prophet (SAW) said; " Allah says: "I am as my servant thinks I am, and I am with him when he remembers me. If he remembers me to himself, I remember him to myself, if he remembers Me in a gathering, I remember him in a gathering better than it, If he draws near to Me a handspan, I draw near to him an arm's length, if he draws near to me an arm's length, I draw near to him a fathom's length, If he comes to Me walking, I go to him running"
 
I immediately applied to an online course that teaches me Electrical Engineering from a beginner to a professional and it's a change of pace for me. I normally gravitate towards IT but this time I chose something different. Here are the notes I took and I will share them as I progress forward in my learning journey In Shaa Allah.

3 Main Stages of Electricity

  • Generation( Either using renewable Energy like solar and wind or fossil fuels)
  • Transmission
  • Distribution
What is an electric circuit? An electric circuit is an interconnection of electrical elements. Basic circuit consists of battery which is source of electricity, electrical loads and wires connecting between them.


What is an Electric Charge? A charge is an electrical property of the atomic particles of which matter consists, measured in Coulumbs ( C). Coulombs is a unit of measurement of Electrons or Electric Charges in general. Each atom consists of electrons, protons and neutrons.
  • Protons= Positive Charge
  • Neutrons=No charge
  • Electrons=Negative Charge
Inside the structure of the atom, we have nucleus and orbits around nucleus. The orbit is made of Electrons while inside the nucleus, we have protons and neutrons. Electrons are rotating around the nucleus at a high speed. Electron is negative and equal in magnitude to 11.602*10

Knocking On Al-Fatah's Doors (The Opener)

The moment I came across the following series which go into depth the nam es of Allah, my life changed for the better. Not only did I grow more intimate towards my Lord, but the amount of joy and sweetness I got out of it is  unexplainable.  https://www.islam21c.com/theology/one-god-many-names-al-fattah-the-opener/ . I urge all my readers to go and read the above article and then the series as one of the names that I want to talk about today is Al-Fatah(The opener) and the reasons why I want to share how it changed my life.  I have been dealing with a mental block for almost 3 years now and although I do not want to complain to other than Allah, I'll try and paint a picture for my audience to understand. I would set my mind to do something like reading a book and I would read it for a couple of pages and then boom, I would put it aside. I would start to feel this immense shadow of tiredness and feelings of procrastination and would therefore stop there. I didn't understand why

What Blue Line? ( Part 1)

 Sergeant Paddy is notoriously known for his anger issuess coupled with his ego on top of a racist and supremecist attitude. Many people do not know that he also deals in drugs and has significant ties to the human trafficking business in his city and state. Buckle up and expect to be filled with rage as this is a story about the dark side of human nature and the power of corruption. Under a bridge on a late afternoon sits Sergeant Paddy and his lapdog Officer Shamrock drinking his coffee while the other smokes a cigarette. This was the spot chosen earlier that day to inspect a load of 'meat' ( a term to describe the women and children trafficked). You would be asking yourself how can such an abhorrent crime be happening in broadlight but don't forget that this man is the head of a unit which by now can be described as a cartel with badges. The city was awash with drugs, crime was skyrocketing and the streets were filled with addicts.  The head of the Police department,a wo

What Blue Line ( The Witch)

  This is the story of the woman who was just known as the 'Witch' instead of her name Gabriella, the head of the Police Department of the City of Hagora. A city once celebrated for innovation and technology now harbors a sinister secret.  Let me describe to you the character of this woman by the nickname The Witch. She has no feminine qualities you would typically find in women nor does she have any masculine qualities. She’s in a state of limbo , always in doubt of herself as she knows what she is involved in is wrong . No amount of makeup can hide the ugliness of her soul projected on her face. She has no sincere bone in her body and even her children are repulsed by her character. She is double faced in her dealings with the residents of her city she polices. She is a master of deception,playing a double game with the unsuspecting residents she's meant to protect. She is involved in dark magic and uses it against people that she doesn’t like. She has access to their DNA
