Final ring circuit - can they be simplified to loads in parallel with each other?

newbieuser

Am I correct in simplifying a ring circuit like this in theory? Assuming the loads are the same 1ohms and the distance between each load is the same as well.

    I'm not sure what your resistors represent - current using equipment alone, or the resistance of the ring conductors (wiring) as well.

    If the former, then I'd say no, as you're not taking account of the two separate paths between CU and each load.
