21. Gustav Kirchhoff’s Current Law is one of the fundamental laws used for circuit
analysis. His current law states that for a parallel path the total current entering a
circuit 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.
In other words the algebraic sum of ALL the currents entering and leaving a junction
must be equal to zero as: Σ IIN = Σ IOUT
