Kirchhoff’s Junction Law
For a junction, the law
of conservation of
current requires that:
where the  symbol
means summation
summation.
This basic
conservation
statement is called
Kirchhoff’s junction
law
law.

Kirchhoff’s Loop Law

For any path that starts and
ends at the same point:

The sum of all the potential
differences encountered
while moving around a loop
or closed path is zero.

This statement is known as
Kirchhoff’s loop law.
