No, electrons are not used up in a circuit. The movement of these electrons provides usable power, but the flow of electrons (defined as current) does not terminate at some random location, it continues back to the source (ie, electrons flow in a loop from the power plant, out to your home, back to the power plant). Mechanical and chemical energy are used to start these electrons moving; this is the energy you use when you use electricity.

Where do usually series circuit used?
Series circuits are used in areas where the operation of the circuit is required to be linear.
What is used to measure the current in a circuit and how is it connected?
To measure the current in the circuit an ammeter is used and it is connected in series
What is a circuit that lights up even if one bulb is out?
A parallel circuit lights up even when one bulb is out.
Does electricity get used up when flowing in a circuit?
The free electrons flowing in the circuit decrease.
What can a 20 amp circuit be used for?
A 20 amp circuit be used for any device that takes up to 20 amps to make it operate.
What color wires do you use to hook up rear light?
Red is used for a swithced positive circuit. Yellow is used for a constant positive circuit. Black is used for ground.
Clipper and clamper circuit?
clipper circuit is used to remove some part of wave form(positive part,negative part or peak)... clamper circuit is used to shift the wave form (up or down) ....
What does the voltage used by each part of a circuit always adds up to?
A: the source voltage
How does read-out integrated circuit works?
Read out integrated circuit refers to integrated circuit specifically used for reading detectors of a particular type. These are used in detectors where the sensitivity is very low and using a discrete circuit may not be useful as noise may be large enough to cover up whole signal.
A fuse or circuit breaker used in a circuit is usually inserted in?
A fuse or circuit breaker used in a circuit is usually inserted in series with the load.
What can circuit diagrams be used for?
Circuit diagrams, also known as electric diagrams, show the inside of their circuitry. It's mostly used to explain how the basics of circuitry work or how light bulbs light up.
What will happen if a thick copper wire is used in fuse?
If a thick copper wire is used in a fuse then by definition of a fuse this device would no longer be defined as a fuse. A fuse in a circuit is used to protect the conductors feeding the load of that circuit. The circuit, if using a thick copper wire in a fuse, would then be considered as a non fused circuit.
What type of circuit would be used in lighting circuit?
A lighting circuit would be a parallel circuit.
Where is the most energy used in a circuit?
The most energy used in a circuit is at the load.
What are the switches in the circuit used for?
To open and close the circuit.
