Connecting equipment in parallel to the supply allows each device to receive the same voltage, ensuring consistent performance across all units. This configuration also enables any individual device to operate independently; if one fails, it does not affect the others. Additionally, parallel connections facilitate easier maintenance and troubleshooting, as devices can be serviced without disrupting the entire system. Finally, this setup helps to distribute the electrical load, reducing the risk of overloading any single component.
What else can I help you with?
A resistor has a resistance of 176 ohm How many of these resistors should be connected in parallel so that their combination draws a current of 5 amperes from a 220 volt supply line?
4 resistors were connected in parallel it yields 5A of current from 220V supply.
Are lamps in house connected to series or parallel?
They can be connected to either supply. A bulb in series that fails, will cause all the other bulbs to go out. A bulb in parallel that fails, will have no adverse effect on the other bulbs in that circuit
What is the effect on the supply current if the capacitor removed?
It depends on how the capacitor is connected and whether the supply voltage is a.c. or d.c. Assuming you are talking about a power-factor improvement capacitor (connected in parallel with an inductive load, supplied with a.c.), then the supply current will reduce.
What would be the voltage suplied to each circuit if three circuits are connected in parallel with a power supply of 30 volts?
30 volts.
What happens to the current of R1 connected in series with R2 when it is also connected in parallel with R3?
The current, if connected to a voltage source that can supply the needed current to (R1+R2) R3, will be unchanged. If the source cannot supply the needed current, the terminal voltage will decrease, which will change the current flowing through R1 and R2.
If additional resistance is connected in parallel with a circuit the supply voltage will decrease?
If additional resistance is connected in parallel with a circuit the supply voltage will decrease?
What happens to supply voltage if additional resistance is connected in parallel circuit?
The supply voltage in a parallel circuit remains the same regardless of the number of additional resistors connected. The voltage across each resistor in a parallel circuit is the same as the supply voltage. Adding more resistors in parallel will increase the total current drawn from the supply.
Is electric cooker connected in series or parallel?
All residential loads are connected in parallel, so that they share the same supply voltage, which is necessary for them to develop their rated power outputs.
What is a DC shunt motor?
A DC shunt motor is a motor using DC supply with the the inductor connected parallel to the armature.
Why are capacitors parallel?
Capacitors are said to be connected together "in parallel" when both of their terminals are respectively connected to each terminal of the other capacitor or capacitors. The voltage (Vc ) connected across all the capacitors that are connected in parallel is THE SAME. Then,Capacitors in Parallel have a "common voltage" supply across them giving: VC1 = VC2 = VC3 = VAB = 12V
Are thermostats in central heating systems usually connected into circuits in series or parallel?
In series. If they are connected in parallel then they won't cut off power supply when they switch off or when they open their contacts.
A resistor has a resistance of 176 ohm How many of these resistors should be connected in parallel so that their combination draws a current of 5 amperes from a 220 volt supply line?
4 resistors were connected in parallel it yields 5A of current from 220V supply.
How is a shunt coil installed?
'Shunt' is an archaic term, meaning 'in parallel with'. So a 'shunt coil' is connected 'in parallel' with... With what, of course, depends upon what sort of device you are talking about. For example the field coil of a d.c. shunt-connected motor has its field winding connected in parallel ('shunt') with the supply.
Why it is dangerous to supply power to an unloaded series connected DC motor?
Starting torque becomes very high due to which motor can attain very high speed and can damage its body and connected equipments.

What will be the resultant voltage across different voltage points connected in parallel?
The voltages appearing across each branch of a parallel circuit will be equal to the supply voltage.
