Kirchoff's Laws are a set of two laws which enable one to analyse arbitrary circuits. First law or Junction Rule For a given junction or node in a circuit, the sum of the currents entering equals the sum of the currents leaving. This law is a statement of charge conservation. Second law or Voltage Rule The algebraic sum of the potentials in a closed path is zero. In algebraic sum, we take a rise in potential as positive and fall in potential as negative. This implies that:
