The video tutorial explains the concept of potential difference in parallel circuits. It begins by describing a single cell circuit with a 1.5V battery and a bulb, showing how the voltmeter reads 1.5 volts. It then explores a circuit with three 1.5V cells connected in parallel, demonstrating that the total potential difference remains 1.5 volts. The tutorial highlights the advantage of increased available power when cells are connected in parallel.
