Relationships in Parallel
Circuits
Parallel Circuit has multiple paths for
electron flow through devices wired in
the circuit

Parallel Voltage in a
circuit
The voltage in a parallel circuit is
equal to the source voltage.
ET= E1=E2=E3=EN
E = 12v
ET= 12v=12v=12v
ET= 12v
E = 12v

Kirchhoff’s Current Law
The algebraic sum of all currents
entering any point will equal the sum
of all currents leaving that point.
IT= I1+I2+I3+IN

I1= 2A
I2= 4A
I3= 3A
IT= 9A
Parallel Resistance in a
Circuit

When resistors are connected in a parallel circuit,
the total resistance of the parallel circuit is always
less than the smallest resistance.

Solving for Unknown
Values in a Parallel Circuit


At each resistor and the total resistors
Ohm’s law should hold true.
The Series Circuit Principles will hold
true.
