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 ...

There are a variety of electrical circuits. We differentiate them through various diagrams and how electrical components connect in a circuit.

A 6-V battery powers a circuit with parallel branches on a board. Several wires and light bulbs plug into the board to make various series and parallel circuits. The brightness of the bulbs changes ...

If one bulb burns out, all bulbs in the series will not light up. What is a Parallel Circuit? A parallel circuit allows electric current to flow through multiple paths simultaneously.

Parallel: this refers to lights that are wired individually to be on their own circuit, meaning they will stay illuminated, even if a light bulb is burned out.
