Domestic electrical wiring is basically a:
✓ Correct answer: b) parallel connection
ExplanationDomestic electrical wiring is primarily a parallel connection, meaning that appliances and devices are connected in parallel to the power supply.This ensures that each device receives the same voltage, and turning one device on or off does not affect the others.Parallel wiring also allows for individual control of appliances and prevents overloading of a single circuit.In a series connection, devices share the same current, and the total resistance adds up, which can cause voltage drops, as seen in old-fashioned Christmas lights where if one bulb fails, the entire string goes out.10.5 Modern Physics 284
