Which of the following is the correct statement?
A) An open means that there is continuity in the circuit.
B) A short bypasses a portion of the circuit.
C) High amperage draw indicates an open circuit.
D) High resistance in a circuit increases current flow.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A short circuit creates a low resistance path that bypasses a portion of the circuit, resulting in excessive current flow. An open circuit, on the other hand, creates a discontinuity in the circuit and interrupts the flow of current. High resistance in a circuit decreases current flow. High amperage draw is an indication of a problem or short circuit in the circuit.
