Course Description
Welcome to Ohm’s Law Made Easy for Parallel Circuits. By the end of this course, students will be comfortable with the Parallel Circuit Rules and the Voltage, Current, Resistance and Power Math Calculations for Parallel Circuits. Both Parallel Resistance Formulas are explained in detail and short cuts are provided to save you time once you understand the Formulas.
Ohm’s Law expresses the relationship between Voltage, Current and Resistance in an Electrical or Electronic Circuit. By knowing any two values, voltage and current, voltage and resistance, or current and resistance, the third value can be calculated mathematically. Understanding the Math behind these relationships can greatly improve you understanding and diagnostic thought process.
Series Circuits are used when lower than source or battery voltage is desired, or when you want components to share the source voltage.
Parallel Circuits are used when we want each device to receive the full source voltage. In Automotive circuits, most are parallel because, more often than not, it is desired that each component receives full battery or source voltage.
This course is Geared toward Automotive students, Beginning Electronics Students and Do it Yourselfers who desire a Solid Foundation and Understanding of Parallel Circuits and Ohm’s Law. This course does more than just show you a formula and tell you about a concept, it walks you through the thought process, the steps, and the reasoning behind them.
This course provides practice examples and detailed explanations of how the answers were calculated and determined.
Understanding Ohm's Law Math when coupled with Basic Electrical Fundamentals, can help students recognize incorrect voltage measurements and become better at troubleshooting, and Electrical diagnostics.
Let's get started!

Instructor Details
Steven Liguori
I am a fully Certified Master Automotive Technician by ASE (Automotive Service Excellence) and Scored 100% on the Electrical/Electronic Systems Certification Test.
I have been a coach and teacher for most of my life, training students both young and old. In my 26 years of experience as an Expert Diagnostic and Repair Technician for Automotive Dealerships, I was the go to guy for vehicles with problems that no one else could fix, as well as a Shop Foreman and Instructor of fellow technicians. More recently, I have educated students for almost 10 years as an Instructor of Automotive, Electrical, and Electronics systems at a Technical School in NY. While there I received a Recognition Award as Top Instructor for being able to get through to students that others thought could not succeed.
To me Teaching should be about:
Getting the Students Involved in the Learning Experience.
Lecturing with a Purpose, not just to show how much you know.
Teaching in a way that lets students realize “I can do this”, not how hard it is.
I am Passionate about what I do – I am here to teach and take Great Pride in every Light Bulb I Can Turn on.
