Summary The available active power of a circuit component under AC operation is defined from the behavioral point of view. Then, the complete investigation of the N ‐port AC Thévenin source is carried out using the simplest tools of linear algebra. Finally, the diagrams (normalized active power delivered and efficiency vs normalized current) pertaining to the one‐port AC Thévenin source with finite available active power are presented, in case of both real and complex parameters values.
