Best Answer

Every electrical outlet in your house is in parallel with every other outlet in the house.

Every AC electrical device in the house ... lights, appliances, computers, clocks, radios ...

are all powered and operate in parallel.

In fact, all AC electrical devices in all of the houses powered from a single pole transformer

are in parallel. The toaster and the microwave oven in your kitchen most likely operate in

parallel with your neighbor's sump pump and hair dryer.
