Characteristics of parallel combination-
★ The resistance is reduced.
★ The current gets divided between the resistors according to their resistances.
★ The voltage remains same . Or each resistor or appliance works on the same voltage(potential difference)
★ If one of the appliance or resistor stops functioning, the others continue to operate without any problem.
★ The installing of new appliance or resistors is easier.

•series connection
- not used in households.
- if one component of series circuit fails,the entire circuit will not work.
- same current flows through all the component irrespective of operating needs.
- single on/off switch.
•parallel connection
- divides current in various component(appliances) and each component can draw current as per there needs.
- separate on/off switch for each component.
- total resistance in parallel circuit arrangement decreases and hence a stronger current can be drawn from voltage source.
