If the break is in either the feeder or return line, the circuit will become open and the circuit will cease to function.

What happens if there is a break in a serious circuit?

A break in an electrical circuit will cause the circuit's load to stop operating.


Why parallel combination is preferred over series combination?

In a parallel circuit (with more than one branch), the current will still flow in the other circuit(s) even if there is a break in one circuit. This is not so with a series circuit, since it does not have branches: if there is a break in the circuit, there is a break in the circuit.


What happens to the other bulbs when a bulb from a parallel circuit is removed?

Because circuit don't break unlike in series.That means rest of the component are getting the voltage across them.


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.


What are disadvantages and advantages for series circuits and parallel circuits?

Basically if there is a break in a parallel circuit then it will continue to work, whereas if there was a break in a series circuit everything will go off.


If you unscrewed the second bulb in the parallel circuit when it was on what happens to the first?

Nothing. That's why it's a parallel circuit. If it was a series circuit, then the first bulb would go out.


What happens if the switch is open in a parallel circuit?

If the switch in a parallel circuit is open, it breaks the circuit and interrupts the flow of current for that particular branch. The other branches in the parallel circuit remain unaffected and continue to operate independently.


What happens if there is a short circuit in a parallel circuit?

Incorrect answerThen only one of the lights go out.Correct answerActually ALL the lamps will go out if a short circuit occurs across any branch of a parallel circuit because, if the wiring has been done correctly, a circuit breaker will trip or a fuse will blow to cut off the supply of current to all the lights.The loss of a single lamp indicates a break, not a short circuit.


What happens to the current in the series circuit?

current remains same in series while divide itself in parallel circuit


What happens when a part of a parallel circuit is disconnected?

current decreases and resistance increases


What happens if there is a break in a series circuit?

The series circuit becomes an open circuit because there is no remaining path.


What are the two kinds of electrical circuit?

There are four types of circuit: series, parallel, series-parallel, and complex.
