Short Circuit
The path of electric conductors is called a complete circuit. It lets electrons a path to flow from their source to the load and back again.
the complete path that electricity can move through is called
rds
A closed loop of conductors through which charged flow is called an electric circuit. In an electric circuit, the flow of electric charge is typically driven by a power source, such as a battery or generator, and can be used to power various electrical devices or systems. The conductors within the circuit provide a path for the flow of charge, allowing electricity to circulate continuously.
A cold circuit
Electric currents flow from the source through the circuit and back to the source in materials called conductors.
What components make up an eletrical circuit
Circuits require conductors to allow the flow of electric current. Conductors are materials that can easily carry electric charge, such as copper wires. When a circuit is connected with conductors, the electric current can move through the circuit, creating the flow of electricity needed to power devices. Conductors help complete the circuit and provide a path for the electrons to travel from the power source to the load.
If you ground the flow of current like the last part of your question states you will not have a complete circuit as the circuit will open on a short circuit. To make a complete circuit operate you need a power source, an overload device to protect the conductors of the circuit, conductors to carry the current and a load across the power source which causes the current to flow in the circuit. Leave any one of these things out and you will not have a complete circuit.
A circuit can have as little as two components 1 Must have a power source 2. Something for that power source to power, for example a light *Assuming you already know you need wires to complete the circuit
# voltage or current source # load # conductors # closed path(s)
Electric current flows from the power source through a circuit. It moves from the positive terminal of the source, through the wires or conductors, to the load (e.g. a lightbulb), and then returns to the negative terminal of the power source to complete the circuit.
