Parallel circuits

  • Each component separately connected.
  • If one of the components is disconnected then it does not effect those it is parallel with.
  • All components get the full source voltage.
  • Voltage the same in all components.
  • The lower the resistance of a component the greater the current.
  • Total current in the circuit is equal to the currents in its separate branches.
  • Total current going into a junction is equal to the total current leaving it.
