What this topic asks you to be able to do
- Draw and interpret circuit diagrams that use any of these components: cells, batteries, power supplies and generators; switches, relays and fuses; resistors (fixed and variable), thermistors (NTC only), light-dependent resistors (LDRs) and potential dividers; diodes and light-emitting diodes (LEDs); lamps, heaters, motors and magnetising coils; transformers; ammeters, voltmeters and oscilloscopes; and know what each component does in a circuit
