Electricity
-
Types of circuits
Series circuit
In this circuit all the components are connected one after the other. This way, all the current flows through all the load devices.

Electrical energy
ATOMS
-
In turn, these atoms are made up of other
particles that are even smaller
Between these particles, there are forces of
atraction or repulsion that generate electricity
-
Electricity
Is a form of energy that lets negatively charge particles (Electons), move from one atom to another
-
Electrical energy can be transported over long distance and it can easily be transformed into light, heat, sound and motion
Conductors
-
Aluminium, gold, silver, copper, etc...
Insulators
-
Plastic, Wood, Carboard, etc...
-
Electric circuit 
Is a series of interconnected components that an electric current flows through to produce an effect
-
-
Open circuits
A circuit is open when the energy of the power source
cannot reach the load devices, so the electric current can´t flow
Closed circuits
A circuit is closed when the energy of the power source reaches the load devices, so the electric current flow
Short circuit
In a electric circuit, a short circuit occurs when the elctric current transported by the wires without passing through a load device
