When a conductor of electricity draws a lot of current (more than its capacity) an overload occurs.

one way to prevent it is using thick wires which can bear a lot of current with overloading

hi friend....

overloading happens when heavy current passes through the wire and excessive heating takes place.

2 ways by which this happens

1) Live and neutral wires come in contact with each other....overloading occurs....

2) Connecting too many appliances to a single socket.. this makes excessive heating and overloading occurs here....

Prevention....

1) Proper insulation....
