parallel circuit

Circuit loads can be on separate wires {parallel circuit}|. Loads split currents. Voltages are equal. If circuit voltage sources are on separate wires, currents add, and voltages are equal. For resistances in parallel, resistance reciprocals add to equal total-resistance reciprocal, because cross-sectional area is more. Capacitances in parallel add, because area is more. For inductances in parallel, inductance reciprocals add to equal total-inductance reciprocal, because area is more.
