$A$ series circuit has only one conducting path for the electrons that move through it; a parallel circuit has multiple conducting paths.

Draw a labelled circuit diagram showing three resistors $R_{1}, R_{2}$ and $R_{3}$ connected in series with a battery $(E)$,a rheostat $(Rh)$,a plug key $(K)$ and an ammeter $(A)$ using standard circuit symbols. Use this circuit to show that the same current flows through every part of the circuit. List two precautions you would observe while performing the experiment.
