Voltage In Series And Parallel' title='Voltage In Series And Parallel' />Voltage In Series And Parallel Circuits GcseYou can see a listing of all my videos at my. Series vs Parallel. There are 2 ways to connect multiple devices to a power source e. OK, theres also. Introduction to Series Parallel Connections. The use, application and importance of series and parallel circuit connection today cannot be over emphasized. Series vs Parallel Electrical Connections. Series vs Parallel. There are 2 ways to connect multiple devices to a power source e. OK, theres also seriesparallel. But well cover that on an upcoming page. This means that the rate of current flow through all devices is the same. The voltage across each device depends on its impedanceresistance of each device and the current flowing through the circuit. When adding more components in a series circuit, the current flow decreases, if the applied voltage remains constant. Watch Ruckenwind Dailymotion there. This means that each device receives the same voltage. The amount of current flowing through each device is dependent on the impedanceresistance of that particular device. If devices are added to the power source in a parallel configuration, the current demandflow from the power source increases. You can see that four speakers draws twice as much current from the amplifier than the two speaker configuration. This means that if you connect too many speakers, in a parallel wiring configuration, to an amplifier the power source in this case it may well be damaged beyond repair. Ive seen it happen, especially when the amplifier was improperly fused. For those Who Want to do the Math. This section will show you what happens to the voltage, current and power dissipation in a seriesparallel circuit. As was said before, in a series circuit, the current in each device is the same. In a parallel circuit, the voltage is the same across each device. In the following circuit, you can see that there are two 1. We know that the voltage across the two 1. We also know that the total current flow through the two parallel connected resistors will equal the current flow through the 4. This means we need to find the total resistance of the parallel network. Watch The Clinic Putlocker there. For a simple circuit with two equal value resistors, we can simply divide the resistance of a single component by the total number of components. For this parallel network, we have two 1. Now that we have, esentially, one 5. We know that we have a 1. We also know that the 5. To reduce the possibility of getting confused, calculate the voltage across the single resistor first. If we have a 1. 2 volt source and the voltage across the 4. To calculate the current through the parallel components. Actually we could have done it as soon as we knew the voltage across the components but I decided to take the scenic route. Although speakers are not purely resistive when being driven with AC voltage, the calculations here could be used to make rough calculations for voltage, current and power dissipation in speakers.
