'''Source transformation''' is simplifying a circuit solution, especially with mixed sources, by transforming a voltage into a [[Electric current|current]] source, and vice versa.<ref name="Oppenheimer">Oppenheimer, Samuel L. (1984). ''Fundamentals of Electric Circuits''. New Jersey: Prentice Hall.</ref> Finding a solution to a circuit can be difficult without using methods such as this to make the circuit appear simpler. Source transformation is an application of [[Thévenin's theorem]] and [[Norton's theorem]].
