Answer
The electrical appliances are connected in parallel in a house circuit due to following reasons :
- Each appliance works independently. If one appliance in the circuit stops working, it doesn't affect the working of other appliances.
- Each appliance has an independent path for current and works at the same voltage.
- Each appliance can have a separate switch connected to its live wire.
