can you explain how come the 100 would do that a bit? .
The 100 can't push 100a through the small 'pipe' of the 55. PT's analogy is a good one.
For me it helps to think of a series of water pumps. Each increases the pressure, but volume is restricted by pipe diameter. Freeway traffic is another good analogy.
I am having a hard time seeing how the 55 is doing 55 and the total output is 55, so why is the 100 doing anything? I know you don't add the amps in series, but why aren't they sharing the 55 in some proportion say 20/35 ?
