Household Appliances: Most household appliances, such as refrigerators, microwave ovens, and
televisions, use parallel circuits. Each component (light, motor, fan) operates independently.
Computer Networks: The wiring in computer networks (Ethernet cables) follows a parallel configuration.
Each device (computer, printer, router) connects to the network independently.
Lighting in Commercial Buildings: Large office buildings and commercial spaces use parallel circuits for
lighting. Each light fixture can be controlled separately.
Computer peripherals: Devices such as printers, scanners, and external hard drives are connected to a
computer in parallel. They can be used concurrently without interfering with each other's functionality.
Streetlights: Modern street lighting systems often utilize LED lights connected in parallel. If one LED
fails, the others continue to function, ensuring continuous illumination along the street.
