Question

Domestic electrical wiring is basically a : 

(a) series connection 

(b) parallel connection 

(c) combination of series and parallel connections 

(d) series connection within each room and parallel connection elsewhere

Answer 1

(b) In a parallel circuit, the voltage across each of the components is the same, and the total current is the sum of the currents through each component. The wiring for most homes is parallel .In parallel circuit each branch receives equal current. If one branch in the circuit is broken, electric current will still flow in other branches.
