The video explains the two types of electrical circuits: series and parallel. In series circuits, components are connected one after another, sharing the same current but dividing the voltage. If one component fails, the entire circuit stops working. In parallel circuits, components are connected on separate loops, maintaining the same voltage across each component while dividing the current. This setup allows other components to function even if one fails. The video also covers how to measure current and voltage using ammeters and voltmeters, highlighting the differences in readings between series and parallel circuits.
