Hello Coleen,
   When enter value for "number of parallel branches" in "Winding" setting, Maxwell will assign the current of "I/a" for each coil terminal, "I" is total current and "a" is number of parallel branches.
    If you need to simulate current distribution for each conductor, we need to set each "Winding" for each conductor, not group all the conductors in one Winding and addtionally use Maxwell external circuit to connect them in parallel.
