1. Aim: To verify Kirchhoff’s Current Law (KCL) and study its limitations.

2. Apparatus: Regulated variable DC supply (0-30V, 0-2A)-1, Digital Multimeter(0-30V)-6,

Resistors-6, Connecting wires.

3. Circuit Diagram:
4. Steps for experiment:
(i)The circuit is connected as shown in Figure .
(ii)The Voltage of DC supply was set at 9V.
(iii)The value of all the 5 resistance were taken as 220 ohm and The reading of the 5ammeters
were noted.
(iv)According, only one set of reading was taken at 9V DC supply. (v)The
Ammeter(A1,A2,A3...)are named from left to right
5. Calculations/Theorems /Formulas used etc.

Applying KCl at junction B: I1=I2+I4

Applying KCL at junction C : I2=I36+I5

8. Result/Output/Writing Summary:

As per the KCL, the value of the sum of input and output current

At the junction are equal. Hence,it obeys the law of

Conservation of charges. KCL VERIFIED.

As per Kirchhoff’s Current Law, the theoretical and calculated values of algebraic sum of currents are

3.07 1.15 3.07 1.16 0% 0..1%

Learning outcomes (What I have learnt):

(i)Learn about the flow of current as per the KCL.

(ii)About the working of Multimeter.

(iii)learnt about the mechanism of resistor and multimeter
