A completed electrical circuit provides a current path for electron flow. Circuits that are complete (have completed electrical connections) will "power up" and do what they are supposed to do when energized. An on/off switch completes or breaks an electrical circuit allowing it to be energized or de-energized.

When does electricity start to flow?
When the electrical circuit is completed - usually by closing a switch.
How are electrical current and circuits related?
Electrical currents require a circuit to flow. If the circuit is broken, then the electrical current will not flow. A switch is a prime example of this principle. When a switch is off, the circuit is broken. However, when it is turned, the circuit is completed and allows for the electrical current to flow through the appliance.
Can a fuse be used to store and electrical charge?
No.A fuse is an electrical safety device that operates to provide overcurrent protection of an electrical circuit.
Can disconnected fog lights run a battery down?
Yes. If they are defective and an electrical circuit is completed but the short answer is probably not.
What does an electrical circuit need to provide the power?
An electrical circuit needs Voltage-electrical pressure pushing electrons, and Amprege-electron flow through a conductor. P=IxE (Power= Voltage x Amprege.
What type of energy do the circuit the batteries in the circuit have?
Batteries have chemical energy stored inside them. Of course, when they provide a current, this chemical energy is transformed (in part) into electrical energy.
When you turn on a television what is the electrical circuit?
The electrical circuit when turned on it is considered closed. By the same token when an electrical circuit is turned off the electrical circuit is considered open.
What things need a electrical circuit?
Electrical devices need an electrical circuit.
Why should we not touch the electrical appliance connected in a circuit with wet hands?
We will provide the electrical circuit with a pathway through our body to the ground. The shock could be large enough to kill us, or disrupt the rhythm of our heart beats.
What is he definition of electrical current?
The current flowing in an electrical circuit.
Will an electrical circuit with a battery be completed by two copper electrodes in an empty beaker when the beaker is filled with distilled water?
No, distiled water will not conduct electricity.
What type of energy flows in a circuit?
Quite often, the word "circuit" is used for an electrical circuit. In that case, the energy is electrical energy.
