(A) Electrical appliances in a household are always connected in series.
(B) Electrical appliances in a household are always connected in parallel.
(C) The potential difference across different electrical appliances in households is not equal.
(D) The potential difference across different electrical appliances in households is equal.

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

(B) and (D) only

The correct answer is Option (3) → (B) and (D) only

Correct statements:

☀ (B) Electrical appliances in a household are always connected in parallel.

☀ (D) The potential difference across different electrical appliances in households is equal.

Explanation: Household appliances are connected in parallel so that each appliance receives the full supply voltage and can operate independently of others. In series connection, the voltage would divide among appliances, which is not practical.
