Voltages in Parallel Circuits
The voltage across each branch of a parallel section of a circuit (branches connected between the same two junctions) will be the same. Kirchhoff's Voltage Law says that The sum of voltages around a loop is zero. The sum of e.m.f.s around a loop equals the sum of potential differences around the loop.
