Question

In the household wiring system, all the appliances are connected in series.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

Advantages of the parallel circuit:

1. In the household parallel circuit is used.
2. There is no division of voltage among the appliances when connected in parallel. The potential difference across each appliance is equal to the supplied voltage.
3. The total effective resistance of the circuit can be reduced by connecting electrical appliances in parallel.
4. Other components will function even if one component breaks down, each has its independent circuit.
5. The current flowing through each component combines to form the current flow through the source.

Hence, the given statement is false.
