<James M. Fiore>'s circuit-analysis laboratory manual connects network equations with actual voltage and current measurements. Testing <Kirchhoff's voltage law> and <Kirchhoff's current law> requires consistent choices of reference directions and node potentials, while the measuring instrument itself can load the circuit. Comparing predicted and measured values therefore tests both the circuit model and the measurement arrangement. This gives a physical reason to distinguish ideal components from a laboratory realization.<Laboratory Manual for DC Electrical Circuit Analysis by James M.
