There are four categories of circuit: series, parallel, series-parallel, and complex.
As its name suggests, a 'series-parallel' circuit is a combination of both series and parallel elements.

∙ 11y agoA parallel series circuit is a combination of components where some components are connected in series, and parallel branches are connected in parallel across them. This configuration allows for different pathways for current flow and voltage drop. It is often used in more complex electrical circuits to achieve specific functionality.

∙ 14y agoA parallel circuit is a circuit were the current can take many paths.

∙ 12y agoTwo wires are said to be in parallel, if both the wires share two common points with each other. And if this point sharing is limited to one, it is said to be in series.

∙ 7y agoNo, a combination circuit is a combination of a parallel and series circuit.
that is called a perfect circuit
In series circuits, amperage is the same at all points along the circuit. In parallel circuits, the total amperage is equal to the sum of the currents flowing through each branch.
A switch is typically placed in series with what it controls to interrupt the flow of current when the switch is off. Placing it in parallel would keep the circuit closed even when the switch is off.
The ratio of the equivalent resistance of series combination to the parallel combination of n equal resistors is (n^2 - 1)/n.
Parallel circuits are different from series circuits in that the components in a parallel circuit are connected in branches, offering multiple paths for current to flow. In a parallel circuit, the voltage across each component is the same, while the current through each component can vary. This is unlike series circuits where all components are connected in a single path and the current remains constant throughout.

They are parallel, or at least you HOPE they are parallel.
A series circuit is actually in series, but a parallel circuit, is Parallel
A resistance 'network' consists of a number of resistors connected together in series, or in parallel, or in series-parallel, or as a complex circuit. A 'complex' circuit is one that is not series, parallel, or series-parallel.

Series and parallelImproved AnswerThere are four categories of circuit: series, parallel, series-parallel, and complex. 'Complex' is a 'catch-all', used to describe circuits that are not series, parallel, or series-parallel. An example of a 'complex' circuit is a Wheatstone Bridge circuit.

Series clipper diodes are in series connection with the load while Parallel clippers are in parallel connection with the load.

Home devices are connected in parallel and not in series.
