Answer 1

Answer:

here is ur answer.

Explanation:

DEFINATION

When in an electrical circuit, a conductor of electricity includes a lot of current more than its capability , then it is said that overloading of an electric circuit has been taking place.

TWO CAUSES DUE TO WHICH OVERLOADING TAKES PLACE ARE :-

(1) When a no. of appliances are connected to a single socket , this causes overloading and can also cause heating.

(2) Overloading occurs when live and neutral wire comes in contact with each other .This causes short circuit too.

IT CAN BE AVOIDED BY :-

(1) To use thick wire instead of thin wires because thin wires cannot bear the current with overloading . In other hand , thick wire can bear the current .

(2) Avoid connecting a number of appliances in the same socket.

Answer 2

Answer:

the answer is as follows:-

Explanation:

1) if current in a circuit flow exceeds more than its permissible value then it is called as overloading

2) it may occur when many electrical appliances of high power rating such as geyser iron air conditioner extra are switched on simultaneously

3) this may cause of fire or short-circuit

4) the effects of overloading can be avoided by connecting a fuse in series with the circuit
