For parallel AC circuits, at any instant, the current is the same value across all branches of a parallel AC circuit, and is equal to the supply current at that instant.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In parallel AC circuits, the current varies across different branches depending on the impedance of each branch. The total supply current is the vector sum of the currents in all branches, not the same current through each branch.
