Serie Parallel

6

Remember a series circuit only has one path from power to ground.

- Total Resistance = The sum of all resistors

- Amperage is the same everywhere on the circuit.

media

7

Parallel Circuits
  • Multiple Paths from power to ground

  • At least one load on each branch

  • Amperage is different for each branch depending on resistance per branch.
