Abstract
The revolution of electricity formulation
was started in early 17th century and superficially
ended up with the electrical current divider as well as
the voltage divider rules. As a matter of fact, the
product of these two components (current and
voltage) is the electrical power and this approach has
been conventionally applied for any circuits?
calculation so far. The power divider rule (PDR) is an
alternative mathematical formula for the computation
of electrical power distribution across any DC
electrical circuits and it was published in the
Electronics World - UK magazine, a 150 years old
periodic. The mathematical analysis was limited to
only the DC circuits and therefore an extended
analysis becomes crucial to implicate the formula
into practical application today, especially in the AC
circuit calculations. To what extend the power divider
rule works well in AC circuit is still an ambiguity as
there is short of literature on it since the day of
publication. Literally there is no substantial analysis
has been done yet to produce pertinent results and
thereby, the power distribution in AC circuits are
thoroughly investigated in this paper. The ideal and
non-ideal simulating results show an authenticity of
the formula because it works well in the AC circuits
in addition to the DC circuits.
