Depends on the application. Lights in your house are in parallel with AC and lights in your car are in parallel with DC.

A lighting circuit would be a parallel circuit.


Where are parallel circuits used?

Parallel circuits are used when there are many electronics on the same circuit, such as Christmas lights, for example. If they were on a series circuit, if one bulb went out all of them would go out. In your home, parallel circuits allow you to turn any electrical device on or off, independently of the others.

What is the difference between parallel circuits and series circuit?

In parallel circuits all positives go to negatives, in series it is positive to positive,negative to negative. The difference example , if 12 vote batteries are in parallel 2 batteries would produce 24 volts, in series you would boost the time required to depleate the battery, but it would stay at 12 volts.


What are disadvantages to a house being wired in a series circuit?

There are no disadvantages to the use of parallel circuits in houses. As the rated power of any appliance is dependent upon it operating at its rated voltage, then a parallel connection is the only method of achieving this. Furthermore, in the case of lighting circuits, for example, should one lamp fail, the parallel connection ensures that the remaining lamps will continue to work normally.
