Series and Parallel Circuit Series and parallel circuits are two fundamental configurations in electrical circuits, each with distinct characteristics that affect how electricity flows through them.

If there are no branches then it's a series circuit. If there are branches it's a parallel circuit. In a television series, you get several episodes, one after the other. A series circuit is similar.

The current flowing in a series circuit is the same everywhere. Figure caption, A series circuit with two bulbs and one cell. The ammeter will read the same at points 1, 2 or 3. In series circuits, ...

Previous tutorials have described that resistors may either be connected as a series circuit or a parallel circuit where the currents and voltages are obtained using Ohm’s Law. To produce more complex ...

Electric circuits often consist of several elements, some combined in series and others in parallel. The methods used to analyze series and parallel circuits can be combined to analyze these ...

Situation: You’re an IT person new to radio broadcast engineering and are given the keys to an AM transmitter site. The manager says to go out and get familiar with the equipment. The site reminds you ...

Why don't your Christmas lights work? Sadly, in the event of a string of lights going out on your tree, replacing the strand is usually the best option. It's pretty difficult to find that one bulb ...

More often than not a question pops up in our forum about speaker impedance and the result of connecting multiple speakers to a single amplifier. Thus we have prepared this introductory tutorial to ...
