A short circuit (sometimes abbreviated to short or s/c) is an electrical circuit that allows a current to travel along an unintended path, often where essentially no (or a very low) electrical impedance is encountered. The electrical opposite of a short circuit is an `open circuit`, which is an infinite resistance between two nodes. It is common.....

This is one of two types of circuit fault (the other being an open circuit). A short circuit fault is often caused by wires touching, allowing current to bypass a component in the circuit. Short circuit faults register on an ohmmeter with almost zero resistance

It is the accidental or deliberate joining of two parts of an electric circuit by a conductor of less resistance that allows an excessive current to flow, usually blowing a fuse.

Unintended direct connection between two points in an electrical circuit. Resistance is proportional to the length of wire through which current flows. By bypassing the rest of the circuit, the short circuit has low resistance and a large current flows through it. This may cause the circuit to overheat dangerously

1) Parts of a circuit connected together with only the impedance of the leads between them. 2) In wind generators, connecting the output leads directly together so as to heavily load a generator in high winds. This creates a "short" circuit path back to the generator, bypassing all other loads.
