Question

Difference between short-circuit and overloading..in table form..ok
Please help

Answer 1

Short-Circuit

Occurs when live comes in contact with neutral wire

High amount of current flows through the circuit

The potential difference at the point of short-circuiting will drop to zero

Overload

Occurs when large number of appliances are turned on simultaneously

Low amount of current flows through the circuit as compared to short-circuit

The potential difference does not drop to zero but it does reduce

Answer 2

1.

when bare live wire or nutrual wire come very close to each other or touches each other ,Than resistance of circuit very high and Hence high electric current produce.This is called short circuit.

2.

In this case large amount of heat is transmitted it causes fire, .

Overloading

1.

overloading means excessive flow of current.

2.

if more electric appliances of high power rating live electric iron, electric heater,etc.are switched on same time,they draw an extremely large current from circuit it is called overloading....
