In circuits connected in parallel, the components are connected on different branches. Find out more with BBC Bitesize. For students between the ages of 11 and 14.

So we use parallel circuits for power and (generally) series circuits for control. In some cases, control circuits use a parallel configuration. Consider the common example of wiring up a three-way ...
