When you turn It off it breaks the circuit. When it is turned on it closes the circuit. To have a light bulb turn on it need to have continuity. Hope that helps
No, once the switch is turned off the circuit is de energized. A de energized circuit can not be shorted out to create a fault.
An open switch circuit is a circuit where the switch is in the "off" position or where the circuit is not complete, preventing the flow of electricity through the circuit. This results in no current flowing and no electrical devices being powered or functioning.
A push switch is an electronic component that completes or breaks an electrical circuit when it is pressed. Pressing the switch physically moves its internal contacts to connect or disconnect the circuit, allowing current to flow or stop flowing. This type of switch is commonly used to turn devices on or off.
The definition of a switch is a device that closes and opens an electrical circuit.
A switch makes a physical break in the electric circuit. With the circuit broken the electricity can not flow. When the switch is turned the other way the circuit is completed and the current/electricity can flow.
Closing a switch in an electrical circuit will complete the circuit. The supply voltage will then be applied to that circuit, and current will flow through that circuit.
When an electrical switch is in the off position, the circuit is interrupted. When the switch is on, the circuit is open and complete.
When you turn your radio on and off, you are simply flicking the switch in the circuit, the same as any circuit with a switch in it. When you turn it on, the switch completes the circuit, and current can flow around the circuit.

A switch is placed in an electrical circuit in order to place a gap when the switch is off, so the circuit is broken. When the switch is on, the circuit is complete and the electricity can flow round the circuit.
A switch turns on or off electrical power flowing through a cable or circuit.
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.
There is a complete path for the electricity to flow. The opposite of an open circuit. If a light switch is on and the light comes on, the circuit is closed. If the switch is turned off, the light goes off because the circuit is open.

When you switch off an electrical circuit you tend to create a 'break' in the circuit, preventing the electric current to flow around the circuit, this can be caused by a simple switch or a break in the circuit, e.g a disconnected wire.
To replace a switch in an electrical circuit, first turn off the power to the circuit at the breaker. Remove the cover plate and unscrew the switch from the electrical box. Disconnect the wires from the old switch and connect them to the new switch in the same way. Screw the new switch into the electrical box and replace the cover plate. Turn the power back on at the breaker to test the new switch.
