Answer:
A short circuit (sometimes abbreviated to short or s/c) is an electrical circuit that allows a current to travel along an unintended path with no or very low electrical impedance. ... The opposite of a short circuit is an "open circuit", which is an infinite resistance between two nodes.

In a short circuit the current drawn from the main exceeds the maximum limit 20 A. This will lead to overloading which can damage the electrical appliances. A common type of short circuit occurs when the positive and negative terminals of a battery are connected with a low-resistance conductor, like a wire.
