Energía eléctrica: conceptos y principios básicos (edX)

Aprende los conceptos básicos de la electricidad, para comprenderla, saber medirla y utilizarla de manera eficiente. Actualmente el uso de la electricidad es algo cotidiano, sin embargo, muy pocas personas conocen los conceptos y principios básicos que permiten comprender como funciona, cuáles son sus parámetros básicos, cómo se miden o cómo hacer un mejor uso de la energía. Este curso de electricidad presenta conceptos básicos como voltaje, corriente y resistencia que te permitirán comprender cómo se mide la potencia y el consumo de energía.En este curso entenderás que es la energía eléctrica y su importancia.
