Last month's column covered the behavior of electrical components connected in series and demonstrated that when a voltage is applied across a series circuit, the current through each component is the ...

I have a Sears deep-cycle lead-acid 12v battery already which I've only used once or twice a year for certain power applications. I was thinking of purchasing an identical model and wiring it in ...

Q: I currently have a set of WDST (Klipsch Synergy Premiere S6) on the surround channel of my RX-V2095. I'd like to add a set of floorstanding speakers (Klipsch Legend 10) to the same channel, and ...

Parallel Circuit Calculations provides a comprehensive overview of the rules and formulas used to calculate electrical quantities and capacity. Using a direct current parallel circuit as an example, ...

Previous tutorials have described that resistors may either be connected as a series circuit or a parallel circuit where the currents and voltages are obtained using Ohm’s Law. To produce more complex ...

Cars, trucks, RVs, and motorhomes run dual 12-volt batteries for various reasons. Depending on how you wire a two-battery 12-volt system, the result can be a 12-volt system or a 24-volt system—or even ...

Originally published at: University of St. Andrews, St Andrews, Fife KY16 9SS, Scotland. “Bi-wiring” is a controversial topic. Some people are quite certain it makes an audible difference. Some others ...

Everybody’s heard of coil splitting as an electric guitar wiring mod but the lesser known series/parallel wiring mod holds a key advantage. When you coil-split a double-coil humbucker you create a ...

To understand a series circuit, visualize it. You can do that by making a drawing. Just draw a box, to start with. This box represents your circuit. Notice there is only one path: the perimeter of the ...

Electrical components, like motors close motorA device which spins when current flows through it. Motors are used in fans, food processors and many other devices. and lamps close lampA component which ...
