Power on self test in electronics equipment or computers is done to validate if all the critical parts of the device are working as desired when it is turned on. Any thing wrong internally or on an interface is typically reported as a failure on power on self test. What all is tested depends on how elaborately the power on self test has been designed.

How do I connect a wall light switch that has 3 terminals, the third being for the ground wire. Which terminal should be connected to power coming from the breaker box?
When you connect batteries in parallel, the positive terminals are connected together and the negative terminals are connected together. This increases the total capacity of the batteries, allowing them to provide more power for a longer period of time.
The two terminals of a light bulb are the positive terminal, typically connected to the center post or button at the bottom of the bulb, and the negative terminal, usually connected to the screw base or outer metal casing.
There is no load connected!
You achieve three phase rectification with a three phase rectifier. There is one in the alternator of you car. You have three windings, connected delta, so there are three terminals. Three diodes are connected to these terminals, anodes towards the terminals, cathodes common and connected to the battery. Three more diodes (for a total of six) are connected to the terminals, cathodes towards the terminals, with the anodes common and connected to ground. At any one moment of time, one winding provides voltage to cause two diodes to conduct, charging the battery. As the alternator rotates, the windings and the diodes take turns, effectively providing a three phase AC to DC power source to the battery. If you look closely, there is another set of three, smaller, diodes connected as well, anodes towards the terminals. These diodes provide power for the integrated regulator, but the six main diodes are large and heatsinked into the frame of the alternator.
Nothing should happen except for the loss of the time to charge your phone with it after a couple hours, you should unplug it.
The common term for an electrochemical cell in which terminals are connected to electrodes immersed in a solution of electrolytes is a "battery." In a battery, chemical reactions at the electrodes produce an electric current that can be used to power devices.
Speakers generally work when they are connected to the radio and not shorted out. You can test the terminals with a multimeter to see if its getting power.
The A/C disconnect box wiring should be installed and connected following these steps: Turn off the power to the A/C unit. Connect the ground wire to the grounding lug in the disconnect box. Connect the hot wires to the corresponding terminals in the box. Secure all connections with wire nuts. Close the box and turn the power back on to test the connection.
Then the component will not work or will be unreliable.
Garage door opener wiring should be properly installed and connected by following the manufacturer's instructions carefully. This typically involves connecting the wires to the appropriate terminals on the opener unit and ensuring that all connections are secure and insulated. It is important to follow safety guidelines and turn off power before working on the wiring.
that means power is still getting to the ignition coil. make sure that nothing is connected to the terminals on the coil.
