To close a circuit in electrical terminology is to close any open devices that are in series with a connected load. Once this happens the current will flow through the load and the load is then termed as energised. In the case of a motor circuit the motor will operate. In the case of a lighting circuit the lamps in the circuit will energise and light the area in which they are installed.
