Karley Padilla · Answer 1

Parallel Connection is used. This is because the voltage drop would be negligible, and u can access any equipment. If series was used then the whole circuit would be needed to complete. So you have to switch on all the appliances to access one. In series the voltage drop is also considerable.

Eleanor Ellison · Answer 2

Every electrical outlet in your house, and every device or appliance that's

plugged into an outlet, are all in parallel. It's also most likely that all of yours

are in parallel with all the outlets, devices, and appliances in the homes or

apartments of a few of your neighbors.

The only things in your home that are connected in series are the switches

that turn things on and off.
