Question

Why are the domestic electrical connections made in parallel?

Short Answer

Solution

Domestic appliances are connected in parallel for two main reasons:

  1. Independent Operation: Each appliance gets its own path for current. If one appliance is switched off or gets damaged, the rest of the appliances continue to work normally.
  2. Constant Voltage: Every appliance receives the same full line voltage (220 V) required for its proper functioning.
