Why voltage measured at terminals of battery to which load is connected is always lower than open circuit voltage?
Real-world batteries do not have zero internal resistance. When one connects a load (resistance) to a battery, current begins to flow and the open-circuit potential is divided between the battery's internal resistance and the resistance of the load. Thus, one will measure a lower voltage at the battery terminals when a load is connected, compared to no-load conditions.
What benefit is there for getting higher open circuit voltage?
There is no particular benefit for having a higher open-circuit (or 'no-load') voltage. In fact, an ideal voltage source would have no internal resistance and, therefore, its open-circuit voltage would be identical to its closed-circuit voltage.
Is the open circuit voltage of a solar cell measured under non-illuminating condition?
Well, you should really measure the open-circuit voltage and the short circuit current both under dark and light conditions and then compare them to fully characterize a solar cell. Measuring the open-circuit voltage means measuring the voltage across the cell when no current is flowing (i.e., with a LARGE resistance as a load on the cell). Measuring the short-circuit current means measuring the current when the voltage across the circuit is essentially zero (i.e., with a VERY SMALL resistance as a load on the cell--thus, "short-circuit" current).
Is a relay defect and open load the same?
A relay is basically a controllable switch that connects a supply voltage to a load. If the relay is switch such that the load is not connected, that could be considered an open load. If it is switched the other way the load will be connected to its supply voltage. A defect in a relay would be something that caused it not to function correctly. It could be in the switch portion of the supply portion of the relay. Hence you are referring to different things and a defect may or may not cause the load to be open.
What reduces voltage?
It depends on what you mean by 'voltage'. For example, if you mean electromotive force (e.m.f.), then the internal resistance of a battery or generator will cause an internal voltage drop, resulting in the terminal voltage being lower than the open-circuit voltage and the greater the load, the lower the open-circuit voltage. On the other hand, if you are asking 'how' do you reduce voltage, then there are various ways. For a.c. voltages, we can use a step-down transformer. For d.c. voltages, we can use a variable resistor connected as a potentiometer, or a pair of fixed-value resistors to form a voltage divider.
Why voltage measured at terminals of battery to which load is connected is always lower than open circuit voltage?

What is open circuit voltage?
The voltage before it is hooked up to a resistive load.

What is open circuit voltage in a Fuel Cell?
A: All batteries will eventually fail when that occurs the voltage out of then can be zero or higher voltage when new, In that case the battery has failed but if you measure the output it will have a higher voltage because there is no load or open circuit as soon as the load is applied the voltage just disappear this condition is called open circuit voltage
How do you find open circuit voltage in circuit?
"Open circuit voltage" is a characteristic of a battery or power supply. You measure it exactly as the term suggests ... disconnect any load from it (or open the ON/OFF switch), and measure the voltage across the terminals of the battery or power supply while it's not supplying current to anything.
When the voltmeter is connected across the open in the circuit the meter will indicate a voltage equal to the?
The source voltage.
Why in no load test transformer is connected on low voltage side?
A no-load test is done with the normal supply connected in the way the transformer is intended to be used. It is also known as an open-circuit test to distinguish it from a short-circuit test, and its purpose is to measure the power loss in the iron core of the transformer and the no-load current drawn from the supply.
What is the open circuit potential difference?
Of what ? ! ? It's typically a few volts DC for a battery, 120 volts AC for a household outlet in North America, either zero or 5 volts DC at the output of a TTL logic device, and anything at all for various kinds of oscillators, drivers, or power supplies.
What quantity does the voltmeter measure when the switch is open?
When the switch is open, the voltmeter measures the potential difference or voltage across the two points connected by the switch, as no current flows through the circuit. This measured voltage is often referred to as the open-circuit voltage.
What is open circuit and short circuit?
Consider two points (A and B) in an electric circuit. An open circuit between A and B means there is no electrical connection between A and B. A short circuit between A and B means there is an electrical connection between A and B.
When a switch is on is a circuit open or closed?
If the switch is what is keeping the load from turning on, then yes, there is a voltage across the open switch.
What is the definition of Open circuit?
A open circut is a not full rotation like a open circle Answer: It is circuit that has no load connected to it. Therefore it may BE ABLE drive any circuit if if there a load but without a load it is open circuit. Here is an example of an open circuit: a "blown" fuse in a power supply line. Current cannot flow through an open circuit.
