PARALLEL CONNECTIONS<br />
The electronic loads can be connected in parallel to increase power dissipation. Up to 5 Electronic Loads can be<br />
directly paralleled in CC or CR mode. The electronic load cannot be paralleled in CV mode. Each Electronic Load<br />
will dissipate the power it has been programmed for. If two Electronic Loads are connected in parallel, with Load 1<br />
programmed for <strong>10</strong> A and Load 2 programmed for 15 A, the total current drawn from the source is 25 A. In another<br />
scenario, if Load 1 is programmed for 0.5 ohm and Load 2 is programmed for 0.5 ohm, the total equivalent resistance<br />
of the two paralleled Loads is 0.25 ohm.<br />
