Voltage Current Resistance Parallel Circuit. But the amount of current flowing through each parallel branch may not necessarily be the same as the resistive value of each branch determines the amount of current flowing within that branch. The voltage across any branch of a parallel circuit.
Next in the same circuit we add two further resistors in parallel with the first resistor. The different parallel current paths leading from one node to another are called branches and a branch can consist of one or multiple resistors. Components in a parallel circuit share the same voltage.

The total current it entering a parallel resistive circuit is the sum of all the individual currents flowing in all the parallel branches. Is equally applied to all branch conductances d. A charge flowing through the circuit would only encounter one of these three resistors and thus encounter a single voltage drop of 12 volts. In this circuit the current will flow through the single pathway available.
