Why you can't usually swap bulbs between series and parallel sets of lights?
If it is in the same circuit, the voltage would not be the same. ANSWER: That is possible if both bulbs have the same rating of volts and amperes
What happens if a light blows in a parallel circuit?
The rest of the lights in the system will remain illuminated. Except in that branch of the circuit. The parallel branch(s) get more current if the voltage potential remains the same.
Can I use 4026ic insted of 4033ic in same circuit?
It depends on the circuit design, and on the intended use. The 4033 is the same as the 4026, except that it has a ripple blank feature that allows leading zero blanking, while the 4026 has a similar (but subtly different) display blanking feature.
What is the 3 advantages of parallel circuit over a series circuit?
The advantages of parallel circuits are that if one component, e.g. light bulb fails, the other ones will keep functioning. The problem with series circuits are that if one light bulb fails, the others are also affected.
Why is the series arrangement not used for domestic circuits?
In series, each device creates a voltage drop related to the current and impedence of the device, therefore, the voltage for the devices in the circuit are not the same. Addition: Also, in a series circuit, if one device fails, all others in the circuit would also "turn off" - think older strands of Christmas lights. Lets say for example that all the lights in your house were in a series circuit. When you turned the circuit on, all the lights would come on, but when you turn the switch off, all the lights would also go off (possibly useful when leaving for the day or going to bed). Now, one light bulb blows out...every light in the house would go out, leaving you to try replacing every light in the house until you found the correct one...in the dark.
Is the number plate light on the same circuit as the head lights?
The number plate light is usually on the same circuit as the head lights.
When a home circuit breaker opens the lights in some rooms go off but the lights in some rooms stay on. Explain why.?
The circuit breakers in a panelboard feed separate circuits. The lights that stay on are on a different circuit than the ones that go off. To fine the circuit that feeds the lights that stay on, go to the panelboard and turn off the breakers one by one until the lights go out. This is the circuit that feeds that circuit of lights. Remember that lights and receptacles can be on the same circuit together.
What is the fuse called for the tail lights and dash lights?
parking lights, these are usually tied to the same circuit as the instrument panel lights
Why are the lights on the instrument panel and tail lights not working In a 1996 Honda Accord?
You have got a blown fuse. These lights are all on the same circuit.
What causes your kitchen halogens lights to flicker or dim?
Assuming there's nothing wrong with the light circuit itself, usually a large load on the same branch circuit (circuit breaker) will cause this. Is your refrigerator on the same circuit? When the compressor kicks on, it will drag down the voltage on the entire circuit. This is most easily noticed by flickering or dimming lights.
Why don't my tail lights and dash lights work on my 1997 Grand Cherokee?
Check your fuse. Usually the manufacturer has the dash lights and the tail lights on the same circuit.
Is there a fuse for the license plate lights on a 1996 Mercury villager?
Should be the same circuit for parking/tail/dash lights
1997 suburban Brake lights and turn signals work but tail lights dont what do I do?
Brake lights and turn signals are on a separate circuit from the tail lights. Tail lights are on the same circuit with the dashboard lights. If the dashboard lights aren't working either, check the fuse. If they ARE working, check the headlight switch.
What type of circuit allows you to use appliances in your home at the same?
parallel circuits for A+
Why are the 1992 safari dash lights not working?
Check to see if the parking lights and tailights are working - if not may be a fuse (same circuit)
Are the horn and back up lights on a 1992 Lumina on the same circuit?
No they aren't on the same circuit. The fuses are in the glove compartment under a panel on the left side...beside the trunk release if you have that option. When you hit the horn are the backup lights going on? or the lights turning the horn on? If so you have a bad ground wire.
What type of circuit allows you to use appliances in your home at the same time?
parallel circuits for A+
