If you have a circuit, the electrons will move through it and reach the negative terminal of, let's say, a battery. But if you have a direct line from the anode to the cathode, the electrons will ignore everything else, such as any LED's or motors you have on the circuit. In the case of electrical outlets, the cathode is unable to withstand as much electricity as the anode gives out. Also, this can cause an "arc" of ionized plasma to jump from the anode to the cathode, and I don't think you want to arc weld your electronics to the outlet...
What else can I help you with?
What is a circuit with no load?
An open circuit or a short-circuit (if that circuit is complete).
Can different rating circuit breakers have the same short circuit characteristics?
Yes, different amperage rating circuit breakers can have the same short circuit characteristics.
Can switchboard explosion cause short circuit?
A short circuit is what usually causes a switchboard explosion.
Is it true or false that a circuit breaker must be replaced after a short circuit occurs?
A circuit breaker must be reset to ON after a short circuit but does not need to be replaced. It depends on the type of CB. A fuse is also a circuit breaker and it needs to be replaced after a short circuit. Relayed circuit breakers have to be "picked up" after a dropout and need not be replaced as such.
Will overcharging cellphone cause electrical short circuit?
No, overcharging cellphone will not cause an electrical short circuit.
What causes a circuit breaker to go bad?
A circuit breaker can go bad due to factors such as overload, short circuit, age, or mechanical wear and tear. These issues can cause the circuit breaker to trip frequently or fail to function properly.
What causes gasses in a battery?
Overcharging (bad voltage regulator) or a short circuit inside the battery.
What can cause the brake lights to stop working on a 2000 vw passat?
Bad switch, bad relay, short to ground in the circuit.
When you will get to know that short circuit will happen?
1. That if a short circuit occurs we will get a sign before short circuit will happen or not ? 2. what we can do ? 3. how fuse can get a short circuit ? 4. which wires we have to use from preventing short circuit ?
What causes a Volvo dashboard to go out?
Could be a bad fuse, a bad relay, short circuit caused by ground fault, and many more reasons.
Is a megohm a short circuit?
No. A short circuit would be zero ohms.
Every short circuit is always a closed circuit while every closed circuit is not a short circuit?
Long winded but true.
What is a circuit with no load?
An open circuit or a short-circuit (if that circuit is complete).
Will short circuit wasting energy?
Short circuit blowing fuse or breaker.
Short circuit example?
An example of a kind of short circuit is an arc welding.
When was Short Circuit - album - created?
Short Circuit - album - was created in 2001.
When was Short Circuit III created?
Short Circuit III was created in 2004.
