alleryDomestic appliances in India are connected in:
ASeries with each other
BParallel with each other
CA mix of series + parallel randomly
DDirect contact with the earth wire
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. Parallel with each other
1. Household appliances are connected in PARALLEL across the live and neutral lines.
2. So each gets the FULL 220 V independently of the others.
3. If one appliance fails or is switched off, the others continue to work — series wouldn't allow that.
