circiut

Good morning class, It’s quite dim in here, can you please switch on the lights?

Ma’am thereare some bulbs that aren’t working

It’s okay,you can sit down now. For our lesson for today, let me use the situation we’veencountered a while ago. Are you curious how do other bulbs light but theothers can’t? We will discuss about circuits. What is a Circuit?

An electrical circuit is a closed loop path through which current can flow. And are typically comprised of electrical devices such as wires, batteries, resistors, and switches.

VeryGood, What are the different types of circuit?

Series and Parallel Circuits ma’am

Correct, Aseries circuit is one in which numerous resistances are linked one after theother. Such connection is also termed as an end to end connection or a cascadeconnection. There is a single path for the flow of current. What about parallelcircuit?

The parallel circuit is one in which numerous resistances are linked across one another in such a manner that one terminal of every resistance is connected to form a junction point while the remaining end is also linked to form anotherpoint.

Correct, who can give me the definition of parallel circuit.

the circuit used is a parallel circuit. Wherein, outlets, switches, and light fixtures are wired in such a way that the hot and neutral wires maintain a continuous circuit pathway independent from the individual devices that draw their power from the circuit.

Youranswers are all correct, for the next meeting, I will discuss more aboutcircuits. For now, you tackle more about the different types of circuit. Class Dismiss!
