Series Circuits
• The electrical components connected in line or in a single path.
– If 1 component dies or breaks there will be no flow of electricity and nothing will work.
• Old style Christmas lights (If 1 burned out none would work)

Parallel Circuits
• The electrical components are connected across parallel paths allowing the electrical energy to flow evenly across multiple paths.
– If 1 component dies or breaks the electricity will still flow across the other legs and all other components will still work.
• New style Christmas lights (If 1 burned out the rest still work)

Series-Parallel circuit
• A series parallel circuit combines both a parallel circuit and a series circuit by either having a series circuit before, or after the parallel component, as on or more leg of the parallel circuit or a combination of these.
• If a portion of the series component goes down nothing that follows that portion will work as the circuit has been broken, however if the parallel components still have energy

Voltage Loss & Flow of Energy
• Voltage loss– Lights in series– Lights in Parallel
• Flow of Energy– What would happen if the switch was
parallel to the rest of the circuit?– What would happen if the switch was in
series with the circuit?
