Q16 of 31 Page 252

Why don't we use series arrangement of electrical appliances like bulb, Television, fan and others in domestic circuits?

The current is same throughout the circuit in series combination. So we cannot connect various electrical appliances as they draw different amount of current to operate. Secondly if one appliance connect in a series circuit fails other appliances will also not work as circuit will break. So we prefer parallel arrangement of electrical appliances like bulb, Television, fan and others in domestic circuits.
