PARALLEL
CIRCUITS - EQUIVALENT CIRCUITS |
|
The schematic shows a parallel circuit
with three resistors of equal value and the redrawn equivalent circuit.
In order to create the simpler equivalent circuit, the equivalent
resistance (Req) must first be calculated.
Once the equivalent resistance is known, a new circuit consisting
of a single resistor (to represent the equivalent resistance) is drawn. |
