Step 1:

\

Find the Norton equivalent current.

\

1. Short the load. \ \

\

2. Calculate the Short Circuit Current. This is the Norton Current \"\".

\

Redraw the circuit :

\

  \"\"

\

The netwrok has three loops.

\

Find the current in each loop.

\

Apply KVL to the Loop 1:

\

\"\"

\

\"\"

\

\"\".

\

Step 2:

\

Apply KVL to the Loop 2:

\

\"\"

\

\"\"

\

\"\".

\

Step 3:

\

Apply KVL to the Loop 3:

\

\"\"

\

\"\"

\

\"\"

\
