In electrical circuits series and parallel are two basic ways of wiring components. The naming comes after the method of attaching components, i.e. one after the other, or next to each other. As a demonstration, consider a very simple circuit consisting of two light bulbs and one 9V battery. If a wire joins the battery to one bulb, to the next bulb, then back to the battery, in one continuous loop, the bulbs are said to be in series. If, on the other hand, each bulb is wired separately to the battery it is wired in a parallel circuit.

∙ 15y agoParallel means exactly across from. These two lines that form an equals sign are parallel: =. Some more examples of parallel items are railroad tracks, all the sides of a square (the left and right are parallel from each other, and the top and bottom are parallel from each other). Hope this helps! : ]

When the resistor removed from a parallel connection of the circuit whether the resistance increase or decrease?
if we remove a resistor from the parallel connection the effective resistance value will be increased.
What are the characteristics of series connections?
Characteristics of parallel connection.
What is the effect of pump installation in series and parallel connection?
if you connect the pumps in series, it will add head at the same flow rate. Inversely, in parallel connection, double the flow rate at same head.
Which is brighter series or parallel?
Parallel. Coz all the elements will get same voltages from the sources. in case of series connection, the voltage is divided between all elements.
What is the differences between parallel connection and serial connection in water pumps?
Parallel and series connections differ in their connection to the feed line. In parallel, each pump is fed directly from the feed line. This means that the water going into each of the pumps is at exactly the same state and the pumps may be analyzed individually. In series, the water is fed through one pump, then the exit line from that pump leads to inlet of the next and so on. What determines the setup for a specific application is the desired property of water at the exit. Two pumps in parallel connection can produce a higher flow rate. Two pumps in serial connection can produce a higher pressure.
What is the difference of a series connection and a parallel connection?
A series connection will not work if one bulb fuses but in a parallel connection if one bulb fuses the rest will stay lit.
How is series clipper differ from parallel clipper?
Series clipper diodes are in series connection with the load while Parallel clippers are in parallel connection with the load.
What is the constant electrical quantity in a series connection and a series-parallel connection?
constant electrical quantity-series connection -current constant electrical quantity-parallel connection - voltage
Where does a fuse has more chances of tripping when connected with a series connection or parallel connection?
series connection
When the resistor removed from a parallel connection of the circuit whether the resistance increase or decrease?
if we remove a resistor from the parallel connection the effective resistance value will be increased.
What kind of connection is most practical at home?
parallel connection is commonly used in our home!:)
What is serial to parallel converter?
A "serial to parallel" converter converts a serial data connection to a parallel data connection. For example, in computer storage, there are controller chipsets that convert SATA (Serial ATA) to PATA (Parallel ATA, also called IDE or EIDE).
What are the characteristics of series connections?
Characteristics of parallel connection.
What is series - parallel connection?
In series connection current will be same. in parrel connection voltage will be same and current wil be varying
What happens to resistance when resistors are wired in parallel delta circuit?
What do you mean by a 'parallel delta' circuit -is there such a connection.
Why lights in classroom is connected in series or in parallel?
only two connections are possible.. parallel connection is always desired than series. .
Is parallel circuit connection more practical to use?
yes it is
