Combination Circuits
Circuits that contain both series and parallel paths
How do you identify the series and parallel elements of a combination circuit?
Trace the current path
How do series and parallel circuit rules apply to combination circuits?
Series rules apply to components connected in series with each other or in series with other parts of the circuit. Parallel rules apply to components connected in parallel with each other or in parallel with other parts of the circuit.
