Why use an enclosed circuit breaker?

To protect the wiring from overheating and catching on fire.AnswerThe term, 'switchgear', describes a variety of switching devices including circuit breakers and isolators (disconnects).A circuit breaker is an overcurrent protection device. Overcurrents are overload currents (due to too much load for a given circuit) or short-circuit currents (due to electrical faults).

Data transfer will be faster in circuit switching or packet switching?

Data transfer will be faster in packet switching providing the setup time in circuit switching is greater than the time required to send a packet. If not, that is setup time in circuit switching takes less time, then circuit switching is quicker.

In a series circuit How does the voltage from a battery compare to the voltages on each load?

The sum of the currents through the branches of a simple parallel circuit is the current that flows through the voltage source.Kirchoff's current law: The signed sum of the currents in a series circuit is zero. The sum of the currents in the branches represents one effective path, which is in series with the voltage source, so the two effective currents must be the same.
