Dear teachers:

(a) The connecting relationship between the terminal and the circuit is not affected no matter how the condition of the switching device is.
(b) The connecting relationship between the terminal and the circuit is not affected no matter what the condition of the switching device is.

Which one is correct? Thanks.

Hi river1974,

Here are other ways to say it:

The switching device does not affect the circuit or its terminals.

The switching device is not part of the circuit or its terminals.

The switching device does not affect the terminals of the circuit.
