CASE ANALYSIS
Scenario
A basic electronics lab setup tests current and voltage distribution in a parallel resistive branch using a 9V battery and two 1kΩ resistors on a breadboard.
Key decisions
- Use a SPST switch on the positive rail to safely turn the circuit on and off
- Connect both 1kΩ resistors between the switched supply node and ground to create true parallel branches
- Use a 0/GND net for the battery return to establish a valid ground reference
When to reuse this
Reuse for introductory Ohm's law, Kirchhoff current law, and breadboard wiring exercises where each branch should drop the full battery voltage.
