Electric current is the flow of electric charges. Potential difference causes charges to move. There are two kinds of electric current: alternating current and direct current.
Alternating current is an electric current which regularly changes its direction. Direct current is an electric current flowing in one direction only.
An electric circuit is a path through which an electric current flows. This is a complete path along which electrons can transmit their charges. Commonly an electric circuit includes a battery, generator, or magnetic means for producing current flow. The function of an electrical source is to produce the necessary electromotive force required for the flow of current through the circuit.
There are two basic kinds of electric circuits: series circuits and parallel circuits. In a series circuit the electric devices are connected so that the current flows from one device to another. Under such conditions the current flow is the same in all parts of the circuit, as there is only a single path along which it flows.
The parallel circuit provides two or more paths for the passage of current. The circuit is divided in such a way that part of the current flows through one path, and part through another. If the current flow is too great a fuse is used as a safety device to stop the current flow.
