Resistors in Parallel
Resistors are said to be connected together in “Parallel” when both of their terminals are respectively connected to each terminal of the other resistor or resistors. Unlike the previous series resistor circuit, in a parallel resistor network the circuit current can take more than one path as their are multiple nodes. Then parallel circuits are current dividers.

Since there are multiple paths for the supply current to flow through, the current is not the same at all points in a parallel circuit. However, the voltage drop across all of the resistors in a parallel resistive network is the same. Then, Resistors in Parallel have a Common Voltage across them and this is true for all parallel connected elements.
