Definitions for "Kirchhoff's voltage law"
The algebraic sum of all the voltage rise and voltage drops around any closed loop is equal to zero.
In a complete series circuit, the sum of the voltage dropped across each element is equal to the Sum of the electromotive Forces (emf's) applied.
The basic law which states that the sum of voltage sources around any closed circuit is equal to the sum of the individual voltage drops across the resistances of the circuit.
