MCQ
Identify the combination which is not a series connection.
  • A
    Resistance box
  • B
    Decorative bulbs
  • C
    Fuses
  • D
    Domestic appliances

Answer

  1. Domestic appliances

Explanation:

Domestic appliances in a house are connected in parallel combinations, and not in series combinations. This arrangement is done so that each of the appliances can switched on and off independently, which is essential in a house’s wiring.
