Title: Wire series and parallel circuits.
Course: Building Trades II (17009-II) > Section: ELECTRICITY: Applying Basic Electrical Wiring

Wiring includes the fabrication of a series and a parallel circuit, using lab materials. The circuit must conform to common trade practices, NEC requirements, and instructor's guidelines. Wiring should include comparing series and parallel circuits.

IRC: Chapter 37 explains branch circuits and feeder requirements.

Process/Skill Questions:

- What is an example of a series circuit?
- What happens when a series circuit is opened?
- Why are three light bulbs dimmed in a series circuit?
- How do series and parallel circuits compare?
