What is the better way of connecting lights and other electrical appliances in domestic wiring? Why?
The better way of connecting lights and other electrical appliances in domestic wiring is parallel connection because of the following advantages: In parallel circuit, if one appliance stops working due to some defect, then all other appliances keep working normally. In parallel circuit, each electrical appliance has its own switch due to which it can be turned on or off, without affecting other appliances. In parallel circuit, each electrical appliance gets the same voltage (220 V) as that of the power supply line. In parallel circuit, the overall resistance of the domestic circuit is reduced due to which the current from the power supply is high.
