Electric Circuit Requirements Source of energy – usually a battery Path for electrons – wire Energy user – TV CD player, Light Bulb.

Types of Circuits Type 1 – Series Circuit Ex. Some Christmas Lights Type 2 – Parallel Circuit Ex. Wiring in your home

Series Circuits Has a single path for the electricity to flow through. If that path is broken all lights go out. The more lights added, the dimmer they get.

Parallel Circuits Electricity flows to each device If one bulb is removed, the others will still stay lit.
