I always wonder. Why is the symbolic language provided by electrotechnology and electronics not used here to represent the operation of CIRCUITS? . This is very beneficial and healthy for everything and everyone. This problem, for example, can be explained by Kirchhoff's first law, - nodes-, "incoming currents to the node equal to outgoing or reverse current". Eg if the generator is 4 [A] and the current passes through two equal diodes in parallel it is silly to think that there will be 8 [A] on the other side.
Technical explanations are only useful for those who have the appropriate knowledge to understand them, but it is also difficult to explain without technical terms. The truth is that I agree with the different opinions presented on the subject is not easy if it is seen from different perspectives.
Dear colleague JUITE, you are right but I want to make an observation, if the consultant does not know the most basic about electricity as is the case, I do not think it is judicious to make him dizzy with theoretical foundations that will only confuse him.
