A and B are therefore In series with each otherand B and C are likewise in series with each other,but if we arrange our coils as in Fig. 44, so thatthe same current which passes first through Aand then through B also passes through G and DIn the order named, the four coils are then saidto be in series with one another. If the circuitdivides before it comes to .4—one branch goingaround the four colls as just described and theother branch supplying in similar manner thecolls of another field magnet, then the two groupsof field magnets will be In parallel with eachother, while the various coils in each group arein series with the others of the same group. This. FIG. 44. is exactly a similar case to that represented inFig. 43 where the group of colls A and B, whileits constituents, A and B are in series with eachother, is in multiple arc or lu parallel with theother group of coils B and C whose constituents,B anA G, are in series with each other. Such an arrangement as this, where the trans-lating devices are divided up Into groups, themembers of each group forming a series, but thevarious groups being in multiple arc with eachother. Is called a multiple series arrangement. If in Fig. 44 the current after having passed
