NORTON THEOREM APPARATUS | Verification of Norton’s Theorem Trainer for Electrical Networks

Description

The Norton Theorem Apparatus is a precision-designed educational trainer used to verify Norton’s Theorem in linear electrical networks. This apparatus enables students to experimentally confirm that any linear bilateral network can be replaced by an equivalent current source in parallel with an equivalent resistance, simplifying complex circuit analysis.
Ideal for electrical and electronics laboratories, engineering colleges, polytechnic institutes, and technical training centers.
