Kirchhoff’s Current Law states that for a parallel path the total current entering a circuits

junction is exactly equal to the total current leaving the same junction. This is because it
has no other place to go as no charge is lost.

The purpose of this experiment was to verify Kirchhoff's current law. One can see from the
data and explanations provided in the “interpretation of data and results” that this purpose
was met where the difference between current (I) and the sum of currents I1 and I2 was
approximately zero. We suspect that the error was maybe due to the resistance of the
connecting wires used in the experiment.
