Question

what is the difference between overloading and short-circuiting?

Explain their key differences. ​

Answer 1

Overloading means an accidental hike in the current .one of the causes for overloading is short circuiting.

Short circuiting occurs when live wire and neutral wire comes in contact

Answer 2

OVERLOADING= when two or more than than 2 high rated high ampere voltage source appliance are connected to same circuit and large amount of current is allowed to pass it leads to overheating of wire due to which resistance becomes zero.



SHORT CIRCUITING it is process in which live wire and neutral wire comes directly in contact with each other due to which resistance becomes 0 and large amount of current is passed.
