Lab Objective
We will design and construct an electric house with a series, parallel, and combination circuit.
We will measure the current and voltage and calculate the power and resistance of each component of the house.

How to Measure Voltage
To measure the voltage in a part of the circuit, the voltmeter must be placed “around” that part, i.e. “parallel”
![Page 10: Electric House Project Sapna Patel Physics & AP Physics 1 PLC Lead Del Valle High School sapna.patel@del-valle.k12.tx.us](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081420/56649d755503460f94a55ae4/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
How to Measure Current
For the current to be measured in a part of a circuit, the circuit needs to be “opened” and an ammeter added “in series” in that spot
