Series circuit

 Series circuit 

An electrical circuit is a loop or closed path for the flow of current through it. The complete closed path along with electrical components for travel of current through it.  A series circuit is that in which circuits components are connected end to end or in such a way that they make a single path for the current flow. The electrical circuits components are resistor, inductor, capacitor, etc. If these elements make a single path for the current flow then the circuit is called a series circuit. Because all components are connected in series to each other so it is known as a series circuit. In the series, circuit resistance is added to get total resistance and current is the same in all elements of a series circuit. Voltages are divided into series circuits.  

A series connection circuit


The equivalent resistance is equal to the sum of individual resistances. There can be different types of series circuits concerning included elements in the circuit. Resistance series circuit; this circuit is consists of only resistors as electrical elements in series circuits. Capacitor series circuits; this one is consists of a capacitor and similarly, there is also a series circuit for the inductor. Some different series network circuits are RL, RC, RLC circuits. There are voltage drops in a series of circuits or voltages are divided into each element whereas the current remains the same and equal in all elements.  

Total V = V1 + V2 + V3 +.......+ Vn, 
Total I = I1 = I2  = I3 =......=In, Total R= R1+R2+R3+....+Rn

In the series connection circuit, Kirchhoff's voltage law (kvl) is applicable.
