Parts and their functions

• Resistor R₁ (current I₁) (प्रतिरोधक R₁ (धारा I₁)) — I₁ = V/R₁. Every branch gets the full potential difference V.
• Resistor R₂ (current I₂) (प्रतिरोधक R₂ (धारा I₂)) — I₂ = V/R₂. The total current divides among the branches.
• Resistor R₃ (current I₃) (प्रतिरोधक R₃ (धारा I₃)) — I = I₁ + I₂ + I₃, so 1/Rp = 1/R₁ + 1/R₂ + 1/R₃ (less than the smallest).
• Branch current I₁ (शाखा धारा I₁) — Flows only through R₁.
• Branch current I₂ (शाखा धारा I₂) — Flows only through R₂.
• Branch current I₃ (शाखा धारा I₃) — Flows only through R₃.
• Ammeter (main line) (ऐमीटर (मुख्य लाइन)) — Reads the total current I.
• Voltmeter across XY (XY के पार्श्व में वोल्टमीटर) — Same reading V across each resistor.
• Battery (बैटरी) — Source of the potential difference.
• Plug key (प्लग कुंजी) — Closes the circuit.
