If you are referring to house wiring, then you don't normally connect lamps in series with each other; they are normally connected in parallel with each other. When lamps are connected in parallel, each lamp is subjected to the same voltage; providing this is the rated voltage of each lamp, them each will operate at their rated power.
If you did connect lamps in parallel, the you would find that the lamps with the higher power ratings will be dimmer than the lamps with the lower power ratings -which is not what you might expect!
What else can I help you with?
In which case will there be more current in each of three lamps- if they are connected to the same battery in series or in parallel?
more current will be in case of parallel because in series combination resistence is greater with respect to parallel combination
How will you get 3 ohm resistance using 2 ohm resistance?
connect 2 2ohm resistors in parallel and connect it to a series 2ohm resistor
Why you need to connect resistor in series for the practical voltage source?
A resistor is connected in series with a practical voltage source in order to determine the current produced by the source.
What is the strength of current in each resistor of a series circuit?
The current in each resistor in a series circuit is the same. Kirchoff's Current Law states that the sum of the currents entering a node must add up to zero. The connection between two resistors in a series circuit is a node. The current entering the node from one resistor is equal to the current leaving the node into the next resistor.
How do you connect an ohmmeter in series or paallel?
A: To read ohms you will use it by reading in parallel and without any external voltage applied
How can two 4v lamps be lit up by two 2v cells?
-- Connect the cells in series. The two terminals of their series combination present a potential difference of 4 volts. -- Connect both lamps in parallel between the terminals of the series-connected cells.
Can a series circuit have one electrical device?
No. You can have multiple devices on a series circuit. How about a low voltage Christmas tree light set. There you may have 15 or 20 lamps in series.
How can I properly wire GFCI outlets in series to ensure electrical safety in my home?
To properly wire GFCI outlets in series for electrical safety in your home, connect the line terminals of each outlet to the power source and then connect the load terminals to the next outlet in the series. Make sure to test each outlet after installation to ensure they are working correctly and providing proper protection against electrical hazards.
How should I properly wire GFCI outlets in series to ensure electrical safety in my home?
To properly wire GFCI outlets in series for electrical safety in your home, connect the line terminals of each outlet to the power source and then connect the load terminals of each outlet to the next outlet in the series. Make sure to test each outlet after installation to ensure they are functioning correctly and providing proper protection against electrical hazards.
Can an electrical timer be used to control on and off power to self ballast lamps?
Yes, an electrical timer can be used to control the on and off operation of the power to self ballast lamps.
What is a series diagram?
When the lamps are in a loop, one after the other: we call this a series circuit.
Why do bulbs get dimmer in series circuits?
When light bulbs are connected in series circuits, they will get dimmer whenever a bulb is added. This is because the current is shared between all of the bulbs equally.AnswerLamps only operate at their rated power when subjected to their rated voltage. If you connect lamps in series, each lamp will be subject to a lower voltage, so they will not operate at their rated power and, so, will be dimmer. The more powerful lamps will actually glow less than the less-powerful lamps because their resistance is lower and the voltage drop across them will also be lower than the voltage drop across the less powerful lamps.
Can a 120V light fixture be used in India?
It can be if you connect two same watt lamps in series with each other. The 240 volt supply will drop 120 volts across each lamp.
What type of cord is used in a lamp?
Lamps use what is called a power cord. Power cords connect the appliance (in this case, a lamp) to a wall socket and the electrical field causes the filiment in the light bulb to beam.
What are Examples of electrical technology?
Your computer The ignition system in a car Lamps
What are the 3 things that converts chemical energy to electrical energy?
lamps
What was used to heat and light before electrical energy?
Before electrical energy, heating and lighting were achieved using fire, candles, oil lamps, and gas lamps. Fireplaces, wood-burning stoves, and oil lamps provided heat, while candles and gas lamps were used for lighting.
