How should the electric lamps in a building be connected so that the switching on or off in a room has no effect on other lamps in the same building?


The electric lamps in a building should be connected in parallel connection so that the switching on or off in a room has no effect on other lamps in the same building.

Explanation

Parallel Connection is the connectivity of two or more components (e.g bulb) connected to the same node and both the sides of the components are connected directly to the battery or any other source.

In simple terms, Parallel Connection is the connectivity of two or more components in which all of the positive battery terminals are connected together and all of the negative battery terminals are connected together. The parallel-connected components form multiple paths or loops.

In this connection, the same voltage is present across all over the circuit. Even if one component breaks down in this connection, then the other components will function properly as each has its own independent circuit.
