electrical pathway where all the loads are connected in sequence, forming a single pathway through which electricity can flow.

An electric circuit in which the current passes through only one pathway.

A circuit in which an entering current flows individually through all the circuit elements.

An electric circuit in which the components are arranged to provide a single conducting path for current.

In a series circuit, each component is connected to the other to form a 'chain' between the terminals of the power supply. The rules for current, voltage and resistance in a series circuit a [..]

A circuit in which all of the parts of the electrical circuit are set up in one closed loop (Lesson 23, Lab 3)

— a circuit that connects a source, load, and conductors in a single loop. Any break in the circuit will stop the flow of current.

An electrical circuit with all parts connected in sequence so that there is only one path for current flow.

a circuit in which current must follow a single path through each component in sequence before reaching ground. If one component fails, entire circuit is open.

      A circuit arrangement of two or more loads (or sources) connected end-to-end only allowing for one current path.  Therefore, all components have the same current but can have different voltage.  An open at any point or in any component interrupts current flow for all.

A circuit in which all controls and current consuming devices are connected in a single line, so that current must pass through each device in sequence.  (See parallel circuit.)

One in which the current has only one path to take from the negative terminal of the battery through the electrical devices and back to the positive terminal; the circuit no longer works if one bulb o [..]

This is when components in a circuit are arranged one after the other in the same circuit.

An electric circuit providing a single conducting path such that current passes through each element in turn without branching.

An electric circuit that has only one path for the electricity to flow. The light fixtures in a series electric circuit are connected to each other in a single line like links in a chain. If one of the light fixtures in a series circuit burns out, the other light fixtures would not remain on because the electric circuit would become an open circuit [..]

A circuit in which the parts are arranged in sequence so that the current flows through each of them in turn.

Circuit in which the components are connected end to end so that current has only one path to follow through the circuit.

A circuit in which resistances or other components are connected end-to-end so that the same current flows throughout the circuit.

a circuit in which the parts are joined one after another such that the current in each part is the same

An arrangement where electrical devices are connected so that the total current must flow through all the devices; electrons have one path to travel from the negative terminal to the positive terminal [..]

One with all the elements connected end to end. The current is the same throughout but the voltage can be different across each element.
