Kirchhoff’s Current Law This law is also called Kirchhoff’s first law‚ Kirchhoff’s point rule‚ or Kirchhoff’s junction rule (or nodal rule). The principle of conservation of electric charge implies that: At any node (junction) in an electrical circuit‚ the sum of currents flowing into that node is equal to the sum of currents flowing out of that node‚ or: The algebraic sum of currents in a network of conductors
