Kirchhoff's Circuit Laws

Kirchhoff's Circuit Laws consist of two principles: Kirchhoff's Voltage Law (KVL) and Kirchhoff's Current Law (KCL). KVL states that the total voltage around any closed loop in a circuit equals zero, meaning the energy gained and lost by electrons is balanced. KCL states that the total current entering a junction equals the total current leaving, ensuring charge is conserved. These laws help us analyze and understand how currents and voltages behave within complex electrical networks, providing a foundational framework for designing and troubleshooting circuits.
