How Are My Lights Wired? In Series or Parallel?
I once had a long discussion with a learner about whether we connect lights in series or parallel with each other. He had a very strong opinion that they were done one way, I tried to explain the right answer repeatedly and he wasn't convinced. So here's the answer explained and laid out as clearly as possible.
