To the Learner
Hello kids. Electricity flows in a path called circuit. The parts of
an electric circuit are conductor, insulator, switch, fuse, source and
load. In this lesson you will know more about electric circuit.
An Electric Circuit is composed of interconnected electrical
components. These components form a complete path of an electric
circuit. Simple electric circuit has three main parts: The sources are
power supply, the conductor, and the load.
The power supply is the source of electricity. It is provided by a
generator or a battery.

b. in a closed circuit
d. incomplete circuit
c. wire
b. switch
d. appliance
c. conductor
d. non-conductors
c. high voltage
b. alternating current
d. low voltage

B.
Trace the flow of electricity from the source on dry cell to the
wire to the appliance or electric bulb and then to the wire and
back to the source.
Electric current does not flow in an open or incomplete circuit.
A current does not flow from the dry cell unless there is a path
from one terminal to another.
