Fairy decorative lights are always connected in parallel.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

If the fairy lights are connected in series, the equivalent resistance offered will be greater and the brightness of the bulbs will be affected. But in parallel connection all the bulbs will glow with same intensity and if anyone bulb gets fused the other bulbs will continue to glow.
