Why lights in classroom is connected in series or in parallel?
only two connections are possible.. parallel connection is always desired than series. .
What type of circuit will produce brighter lights is it series circular direct or parallel?
Parallel connections will draw more current than equivalent lights connected in series, so the parallel configuration will be brighter.
Are the circuits at homes connected in series or parallel and why?
They're connected in parallel, this is so that everything connected to the circuits will receive the same voltage. Also, if everything was connected in series, if one of the components died, everything would be dead (think of christmas lights)
How are the loads in parallel circuit connected?
Parallel to each other.
How do you wire a 240 volt street light circuit?
A 240 volt street light circuit is wired in parallel connections. In the base of the street fixture an inline fuse is connected into the circuit that goes up to the fixture to protect the lamp head.
Are the lamps in buildings connected in parallel or series?
No. They are connected in parallel with each other.
Are the lights in your school connected in series current or parallel current?
Overhead lights are typically connected in parallel. If they were connected in series, then, if one light went out, all of the lights would go out. Think of Christmas lights, they are connected in series. When one of the lights burns out, the whole string of lights goes out.
Why are fairy decorative lights always connected in parallel?
If you mean Christmas lights; that was before. Nowadays Christmas lights are connected in parallel.
What will happen to lights connected in parallel when of the lights is busted?
Nothing will happen to the rest of the lights if they are connected in paralell. If they are connected in series when one light is broken all of the lights go out.
Are street lights on a series circuit or a parallel circuit?
Parallel. One light burning out does not stop all current flow to the other lights.

What can you infer about whether or not your house lights are connected in series or parallel?
House lights are wired in parallel. If they were in series, when one burned out, all would. Christmas lights are wired in a combination of series and parallel - roughly 50 lights in each series string. that's why if one bulb burns out, a section of the lights goes out.
If one of the bulbs in a string of lights is missing but the lights still work what type of circuit connects the lights?
A parallel circuit. All the lights are connected in parallel across the power source.
How could you determine whether a string of lights is in series or parallel?
on applying same power the one which glows brighter is the one connected in parallel connection.
What is the difference between series and parallel Christmas lights?
With series Christmas lights, if one burns out, the whole string stops working. With parallel Christmas lights one light burning out only affects that light. This makes it much easier to replace burned out lights in the case of the parallel lights.
How is resistivity connected to resistance?
Resistance is connected in parallel with voltmeter or say, voltmeter is connected in parallel with resistance.
