how does the short circuit form?what is its effect?
Answers
Explanation:
A short circuit is an abnormal connection between two nodes of an electric circuit intended to be at different voltages. This results in an electric current limited only by the Thévenin equivalent resistance of the rest of the network which can cause circuit damage, overheating, fire or explosion.
Answer: A short circuit is a sudden flow of large amount of current flowing through the circuit. This happens when both the wires of the circuit comes in contact with each other. This causes the conductor to heat up and often catch fire. Effects of Short-Circuit. When a short-circuit occurs, the current in the system increases to an abnormally high value while the system voltage decreases to a low value. The heavy current due to short-circuit causes excessive heating which may result in fire or explosion.
