CST 122 LAB3 LADDER CIRCUITs, VOLTAGE DIVIDERS & LoADING Name: Date: Part 1-General Understanding 1. What is an "electrical load" and what does it mean to "load" a circuit? 2. What is a ladder network circuit? Are there any common uses for ladder circuits? Part 1-Voltage Dividers 1. Find each of the listed resistors and use the multimeter to find the measured values of each resistor.

An electrical load is a portion or part of the circuit or an electrical component that eats electrical power. Whether it is generator or battery whichever produces power it is opposite to that. We can see examples of electrical load in our daily lives like Fan, Light bulbs, induction etc..
This terminology is mostly used in electronics for the devices which are connected to signal source. , whether ir consumes power or not. If there is an output port in an electrical circuit pair of terminals which produces electrical signal and the circuit connected to terminals is the load. For example, if a DVD player is connected to an amplifier, the DVD player is the source and the amplifier is the load.
2.
Ladder network circuit is the circuit which contains resistors which are formed in series as well as parallel repetitively. Since multiple resistors can be put together to full fill some functionality, this is an inexpensive way. Also higher impedance values can be reached using the same number of components.
