Series and parallel are the two types of electrical circuits.

In this topic you need to know about the following: -

  • The differences between series and parallel circuits.
  • How resistance is affected by series and parallel circuits.
  • The equation work done = current x potential difference
  • The effect of changing lamps, diodes, LDRs thermistors and resistors in a circuit.

    • Use the arrows below to continue to revise.
