all probably have had to see the spring flowing streams.Here's a trickle somewhere in a hurry.Here are a number of other runs.But they are united, and then flows only one.To draw an analogy with an electric current, each stream can be considered as a conductor through which electric current flows.And when the two are connected brook, again by analogy, we can say that witnessed the connection of conductors.
same picture we see when a river empties into another.Two rivers flowed, and then flows alone, but a wider and deepest.But to understand this union we will have an easy experience, you can make it even mentally.Take the two short pieces of rubber hose.We are in fact now it is only important that the water can flow through the hose.
These hoses will serve as guides, demonstrating what happens to an electric current.Put the hose on the water tap and let the water.It flows from the faucet through a hose.Here we make a connection - a crane with a hose.It is called consistent, when the end of one conductor is connected with the beginning of another, in this case the abutted spigot and hose.
Now we take the two hoses and end of each of them connected to the tap (even just putting these tips into the spout faucet), and both of the other end lower in the capacity, for example, a bucket, and let the water.Tap water will flow into the bucket, and it will run on both hoses.We will see that each of the hose water flows.Thus, we performed a parallel connection of conductors.
That's about the same situation occurs when an electric current flows.Only in this case, current flows through the conductors, which are used as wires.If the two ends of the two wires are connected to one point and the other two to the other, it will be a parallel connection of the conductors.If the wires are joined together and then two free ends are connected to the correct location (to the source and load), it will be a serial connection.
It would seem, what for such complexities?And everything is very simple.When performing parallel connection conductors, the total current flowing through all the wire more than each individually.Recall hoses and water.For several thin hoses water will flow more than each of them individually, and it is possible, with thin hoses to pass through them large amounts of water.
The same thing happens when an electric current flows.If not desired wire cross-section capable of transmitting a large current, it is possible to make the parallel connection of the conductors.Then several thin wires will flow the same current as in one thick.
His purpose and serial communication wires.It is applied when the wire length is not enough.In this case, several short wires connected, thus increasing their length, and this compound is used instead of a single long wire.
So look the simplest options when using the parallel and serial connection of conductors.When the wiring situations are much more complex.In many cases, different ways of wiring can achieve the desired objective, using the limited resources available.At the same time knowledge of the laws of parallel and serial connections to avoid errors when performing calculations of electrical and electronic circuits.Proper execution of serial or parallel wiring - a requirement when performing any electrical work.
The material presented in the simplest examples and analogies allows us to understand what the connection wires, which are connections (serial, parallel), and gives examples of the use of such compounds in the art.
