Series Circuits Series Circuit – a circuit that contains only one current path Circuit Diagram Constructed Circuit EGR 101 1 Total Series Resistance From our Breadboarding Experiment, we found that the total resistance of this circuit is 11.3 kΩ, which happens to be equal to the sum of all of the resistances in the series loop. RT R1 R2 ... Rn RT = the total circuit resistance Rn = the highest-numbered resistor in the circuit EGR 101 2 Current in a Series Circuit Current Characteristics – the current at any point in a series circuit must equal the current at every other point in the circuit EGR 101 3 Voltage Characteristics of a Series Circuit The voltages across the resistors “around the loop” add up to the applied Power Supply voltage.
