The equivalent resistance of a circuit (or network) between
its any two points (or terminals) is given by that single resistance which can
replace the entire circuit between these two points. It should be noted that
resistance is always between two given points of a circuit and can have
different values for different point-pairs.

It can usually be found by using
series and parallel laws of resistances. Concept of equivalent resistance is
essential for understanding of network theorem like Thevenin’s theorem,
Norton’s theorem, superposition theorem, etc.
