Parallel Circuits

About this class



Learn about the behavior of voltage, current, and resistance in a parallel circuit.





Prerequisites


Understanding Ohm's Law, Kirchhoff??s Law, and series circuits is recommended.

Description


This is the fourth lesson in the iKNOW Electrical Theory for Troubleshooters Library. This lesson describes the behavior of voltage, current, and resistance in a parallel circuit. The learner is also instructed in the identification of the series and parallel portions of a series-parallel circuit.

Objectives


Describe how voltage and current behave in a parallel circuit. Describe how resistance behaves in a parallel circuit. Identify the series portions of a series-parallel circuit. Identify the parallel portions of a series-parallel circuit. Simplify a series-parallel circuit to determine how voltage, current, and resistance behave.
