BSTRACT
Build a parallel circuit in multisim to verify the validity of KCL and also Verify the current divider rule.
I
NTRODUCTION
Using Multisim I created a parallel circuit with 3 different resistors to verify KCL and also do calculations to measure current throughout the circuit. If calculations match The measured current in multisim, KCL can then be said to be verified. P
ROCEDURES
Start off by creating a parallel circuit using multisim. Using a 1kΩ, 3.3kΩ, and 10kΩ resistors, a 12V DC power supply, and ground and connector nodes. Connect multimeters to the circuit on each branch to measure the current. After doing so, using the equation 1

6.
Calculate through circuit analysis and record in Table 1 above:
a.
I1= 12v/1kΩ
b.
I2= 12v/3.3kΩ
c.
I3= 12v/10kΩ
7.
Compare measured and calculated currents
Both measured and calculated measurements are the same. 8.
Verify Kirchhoff’s Current law, KCL.
KCL states that the total current flowing into a node must be the total leaving the node. If the total leaving the node is 16.83mA, and the three currents of each individual branch add up to that it verifies KCL. C
ONCLUSION
In conclusion, I did verify that the total current of a parallel circuit is equal to the sum of the current of each branch as it is stated in KCL. I am also aware that in a parallel circuit, the voltage stays the same across all branches and nodes.
